Psyche's Knife: Archetypal Explorations of Love and Power

Psyche's Knife: Archetypal Explorations of Love and Power

Psyche's Knife examines the myth of Eros and Psyche as a metaphor for the development of soul in the psychology of women, explicating the tropes of love and power as depicted by Psyche's use of a knife in attempting to learn the identity of her lover.
Nelson examines the metaphor of the knife from all anglesâ€”alchemical, sacrificial, lunar, phallicâ€”and delves into the mythology and imagery of women and knives, connecting our deep past to our present lives and our possibilities for the future.
