Fairy Tale Heroine. Live and Write Her Journey (en Inglés) - Kate Farrell

The author of Story Power reimagines and examines the Hero's Journey through the lens of the feminine quest.  

From a heritage that is wide and profound, stories of courageous heroines and their daunting tasks, are gathered from the oral traditions of the matriarchal cultures of Old Europe. Farrell rediscovers the feminine quest with lively commentaries on their layers of symbolic meanings. Each fairy tale reflects aspects of the feminine psyche today, as cited in the research of Jungian scholars, and demonstrated in the range of stories discussed, from classics like “Snow White” and “Cinderella” to film and fiction of pop culture.

Readers will find themselves in the heroine’s journey and writers will translate its archetypes, motifs, tropes, and characters to their creative work helped by prompts, writing exercises, and personal examples from each chapter.
