Masculine Shame

From Succubus to the Eternal Feminine

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the idea that the image of the succubus, a demonic female creature said to emasculate men and murder mothers and infants, has been created out of the masculine projection of shame and looks at how the transformation of this image can be traced through Western history, mythology, and Judeo-Christian literature.
