Description

The Callisto myth demonstrates the vulnerability of women to the power of the patriarchy. Kathleen Wall opens her analysis with a discussion of the classical versions of the Callisto myth. She draws a discrete parallel between Callisto's rape by Zeus and the traditional rape of femininity by the patriarchy and its institutions.
