This collection of new essays seeks to define the unique qualities
of female heroism in literary fantasy from Tolkien's The Lord of
the Rings in the 1950s through the present. Building upon
traditional definitions of the hero in myth and folklore as the
root genres of modern fantasy, the essays provide a multi-faceted
view of an important fantasy character type who begins to
demonstrate a significant presence only in the latter 20th century.
The essays contribute to the empowerment and development of the
female hero as an archetype in her own right.
