Miraim Robbins Dexter, Whence the Goddess, A source book? Can you tell me more?

Answer 1

I just pulled it off my shelf...
From the back cover: Whence the Goddess: A Source Book discusses the history of goddesses and examines the accrual of characteristics, powers, and functions among goddesses through ancient Europe and other areas inhabited by Indo-European speaking peoples. It includes excerpts from a multitude of sources in their original language.

This comprehensive work will be useful for courses in women's studies and classical and comparative mythology, and it will serve as an invaluable reference for feminists of all cultures who are interested in historic and comparative roles of female figures.

Hope that helped!
