Title: Introduction: Our Amazon Heritage Title Record # 133449
Author: Jessica Amanda Salmonson
Date: 1979-12-00
Type: ESSAY
Language: English
Synopsis: The author discusses the sidelined history of heroic, strong women and the matriarchal and matrilineal societies of the past; and how literature represents "reality" to the culture, so that the lack of realistic strong female heroes in fantasy fiction helps to obscure this history.
