This book explores feminine archetypes and mythological figures in
African and European traditions with an underlying goal of
describing the foundations of social status for women. The author
provides a rich corpus of mythology and tales to illustrate aspects
of female and mother-daughter relationships. Diop analyzes the
symbolic aspects of maternity and femininity, describing the social
meaning of the matrix, breasts, and breastfeeding. A retrospective
of female characters in African literature brings an interesting
approach to explore the figures of femininity and maternity in
society. After an extensive analysis of African mythology and
tales, the author proposes a way to integrate them in the clinical
psychotherapy as a projective material. The analysis of clinical
cases offers an example of how this material can be used in therapy
with women from African descent.
