More about the book
Exploring the significance of sex in various mythologies, David Leeming asserts that sexual themes are deeply embedded in cultural narratives, reflecting human obsessions and complexities. He examines figures like Gaia, whose reproductive acts may symbolize ancient matriarchal societies, and the Polynesian demigod Maui, whose exploits highlight the allure of sexual power. Through these myths, Leeming illustrates how sexual narratives serve multiple purposes, resonating with our own experiences and societal structures.
