A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

"WOMEN WHO RUN WITH THE WOLVES isn't just another book. It is a gift of profound insight, wisdom, and love. An oracle from one who knows."
Alice Walker
Within every woman there is a wild and natural creature, a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing. Her name is Wild Woman, but she is an endangered species. Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Ph.D., Jungian analyst and cantadora storyteller shows how women's vitality can be restored through what she calls "psychic archeological digs" into the ruins of the female unconsious. Using multicultural myths, fairy tales, folk tales, and stories, Dr. Estes helps women reconnect with the healthy, instinctual, visionary attributes of the Wild Woman archetype.
Dr. Estes has created a new lexicon for describing the female psyche. Fertile and life-giving, it is a psychology of women in the truest sense, a knowing of the soul.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Women Who Run With The Wolves isn`t just another book. It is a gift of profound insight, wisdom and love. An oracle from one who knows. ` Alice Walker

The `wild woman' is the wise and ageless presence in the feminine psyche that gives women their creativity, energy and power. For centuries, the `wild woman` has been repressed by a male-orientated value system which trivializes women`s emotions. The author uses a combination of time-honoured stories and contemporary casework to explain that the `wild woman` in us all innately healthy, passionate and wise. Passionately written and compelling in its arguements, Women Who Run With The Wolves will give contemporary readers a new sense of direction, a self-confidence and purpose in their lives.
