The eternal feminine principle: secrets of the sacred nature
Joseph Campbell's mythological writings gained wide popular acceptance from all over the world in a way never before seen with any researcher in his field. Although he did not dedicate a book to discuss female goddesses in ancient world traditions, Campbell delivered more than twenty lectures and workshops on goddesses and the feminine principle between 1972 and 1986, exploring the forms, functions, symbols, and themes of the sacred feminine, tracing its transformations across time and space. Dr. Safron Rozi, a professor of mythology and editor of this book, and the keeper of Joseph Campbell's archive, organized the chapters of this book based on Campbell's lectures and workshops on the feminine principle, which show his understanding of the uniqueness of the feminine form in mythology, and what this means for women. In this book, we find an extensive elaboration by Campbell summarizing his view of the movement of religions and their change in ancient eras, within approaches stemming from ancient civilizations, myths, and their intertwined relationships in an attempt to unravel what can be called "the mystery of the feminine."
