Krátky popis
A groundbreaking history of the ancient goddesses of love and
warThe figure of a goddess who represents both love and war can be
found in cultures across the ancient world. These societies were
all polytheistic, and all worshipped such deities as Venus, Freya,
and the Morrigan. What was it about this model of divine femininity
that ancient people in Europe and the Near East found so
attractive?In this vivid account, Ronald Hutton traces the history
of eight key goddesses in ancient societies.Looking at the Sumerian
Inanna, ancient Greek Aphrodite, and Egyptian Hathor, amongst
others, Hutton compares the characters of these female deities and
examines how and why such a figure reoccurred so often. Ranging
from Mesopotamia, Syria, and Palestine to western Europe, this
fascinating story provides a deeper understanding of two of the
most powerful and intractable human impulses: love and war.
