ill., br. La luna e i suoi miti hanno incantato le culture di tutto il mondo da tempo immemorabile. Con la sua luce sottile che illumina il cielo notturno, la luna è sempre stata un oggetto di fascino, dal suo ciclo fenomenale di nascita e morte alla sua associazione con il corpo femminile e la fertilità. Jules Cashford esplora i miti, i simboli e le immagini poetiche della luna nel corso della storia, dai primi segni paleolitici su corno e ossa, fino alla poesia odierna. Il libro, ampiamente illustrato, indaga su come l'immagine lunare abbia contribuito a modellare la nostra mente e, soprattutto, esamina ciò che questi miti e immagini ci raccontano della nostra coscienza. Particolare attenzione è data alla visione della luna come agente di cambiamento e trasformazione.
