Electra: Tracing a Feminine Myth through the Western Imagination

137 pages, ISBN 1-88267-098-1 / 978-1-88267-098-7, Spring Publications

The first attempt to articulate from a Jungian perspective the Greek figure of Electra to the psychology of contemporary girls and women. Describing Electra as a dark puella identified with Saturn, Cater explores how this myth may appear in the lives of women today.
