Artemis: The Indomitable Spirit in Everywoman (for Readers of Crones Don't Whine or the Twelve Faces of the Goddess)

內容簡介

內容簡介 Activism for the Modern Day ArtemisFrom the author dubbed "an Artemis," by Gloria Steinem, comes Artemis: The Indomitable Spirit in Everywoman, a book dedicated to women with the courage and passion to change the world. Myths come to life. Worshiped in Ancient Greece as a protectress of young girls, Artemis was the goddess of hunting, nature, and chastity--the original "wild woman." In Artemis, Jungian analyst and best-selling author, Jean Shinoda Bolen, revives the goddess Artemis to reclaim the female passion and persistence to survive and succeed. We are all goddesses. But an indomitable spirit isn't just reserved for the gods. In her book, Dr. Bolen revives the myth of Atalanta, an archetypal Artemis and mere mortal. To Atalanta, fate was no obstacle. Left to die because she was born a girl, she faces the Calydon Boar and outruns any man attempting to claim her as his wife. In Artemis, women are encouraged to discover their inner heroine--the activist who never gives up, who cannot be subdued. Artemis today. Face it: women can't be tamed. Whether women's rights activists or Princess Merida from Brave, the Artemis personality is embodied in the modern women. Hailed by a modern-day Artemis, Isabel Allende, as a "beautiful, inspiring book," Artemis is dedicated to all women and girls who discover her unconquerable spirit in themselves or others. Inside find: Examples of Artemis in real-life and popular culture Ancient and modern ways to be your authentic self A source of strength, power, and integrity If you enjoyed the books Women Who Run with the Wolves, Wild Mercy, or Goddesses in Everywoman, you'll love Artemis: The Indomitable Spirit in Everywoman.
