Merlin Stone was een visionaire geleerde wiens werken de verborgen geschiedenissen van religie en de rol van vrouwen onderzochten. Door haar veelgeprezen geschriften daagde ze traditionele verhalen uit en onthulde diepgewortelde matriarchale structuren die de ontwikkeling van grote wereldreligies beïnvloedden. Haar teksten, vaak controversieel, nodigen lezers uit om geaccepteerde opvattingen over de oudheid en de aanwezigheid van godinnenfiguren te heroverwegen. Stone's eigen artistieke praktijk als beeldhouwer verrijkte haar begrip en interpretatie van geschiedenis en cultuur.
Here, archaeologically documented, is the story of the religion of the Goddess. Under her, women's roles were far more prominent than in patriarchal Judeo-Christian cultures. Stone describes this ancient system and, with its disintegration, the decline in women's status. Index; maps and illustrations.
