Some books are like revelations, they open the spirit to unimaginable possibilities. These tapes are an important contribution to that struggle. Her vision is the partnership model, which today is struggling to reemerge. ![]() In selections made and read by the author herself, The Chalice and the Blade presents new scripts for living - based on a more socially, economically, ecologically, personally, and spiritually balanced society rather than on the tension and violence typical of what Eisler calls the dominator model. The result is a startling synthesis of prehistory, history, present, and future - a radical and convincing view of the human condition. She powerfully reconstructs the Goddess culture and the global shift to patriarchy, drawing evidence from literature, art, sociology, archeology, politics, and economics. Creative inspiration for moving the future of humankind toward a new era of partnership - Presents this classic visionary synthesis in a new, abridged, accessible form Combining original theory with the work of other noted scholars, Riane Eisler creates an expansive look into prehistoric times, when Goddess religions flourished. ![]()
