The Chalice and the Blade: Our History, Our Future

by RianeEisler (Author)

Synopsis

This text proposes two models of human history: the blade represents the dominator model , a world of conflict and domination, threatened with environmental destruction; the chalice represents the partnership model , a society based on equality and co-operation. Eisler uncovers the existence, prehistory, of a goddess culture where the chalice held sway and there was peace for humankind.
