The Goddess of Love, Aphrodite- or Venus, or Astarte- she has had
many names. She is the goddess of life, fertility and renewal, but
she is also the patroness of carnal desire: "a thousand honey
secrets thou shalt know" is her promise to the boy Adonis in
Shakespeare's poem about the pair. Incredibly, perhaps, he resists
this offer- but most of us do not.The enduring role of the goddess
in human sex and passion is well known, but how well is she suited
for love and sexuality in the modern world?To understand that, we
must trace something of her origins, and focus our attention on the
way in which more recent writers and artists have imagined her.
