Beauty or Beast?: The Woman Warrior in the German Imagination from the Renaissance to the Present

A regiment of women warriors strides across the battlefield of German culture - on the stage, in the opera house, on the page, and in paintings and prints. These warriors are re-imaginings by men of figures such as the Amazons, the Valkyries, and the biblical killer Judith.
