"Challenging read! The first half was extremely hard to plow through, but the second half made up for it. This is a fascinating read. From my notes when I read it (pre-1998) I wrote: Neumann's Great Mother was very, very difficult to begin, but developed into one of the best books I have read describing the relation of history with psychology, in this case, with the feminine."
"Okay, all you Jungians out there, start your engines! This is another classic take on mythology and folklore regarding the role of the feminine in civilization. Falls in the geek category, but fascinating in a geeky sort of way."
"Erich Neumann was one of the very few analytical psychologists (aka Jungians) I have read who seemed to have anything at all to add to what C.G. Jung wrote. This is not one of his better books, being a long list of thematically arranged references to attributes of the feminine."
