What is the meaning of the popularity of this feminine figure? How do scholarly, psychological, theological and alternative studies fit with legend and novels? Studying them all is a circuitous path through slippery material ranging from feminine and nonlinear, to hard fact and scholarly, to intuition and sometimes sheer speculation, and concrete through symbolic. But it always circles around a central point. All of it is relevant to trying to distill out the meaning implied not only by the material itself, but also by the question of the meaning of its terrific emergence in the past score of years. |
