The myth of Morgan la Fey /Kristina Pe�� - 1 online resource (pages cm.) - Arthurian and courtly cultures. - Studies in Arthurian and courtly cultures..

Includes bibliographical references.

Introduction: final girl: the once and future goddess -- How to handle a woman: perversion or psychosis? -- Courtly masochism -- Monstrous mothers: Morgan la Fey and Me��lusine -- Divine mothers: Morgan, the Dame du lac, and the Virgin Mary -- What do women want? Gawain and Freud -- Fals lustes: Malory's mistresses -- Follow me: beguiling the Victorians -- If ever I would leave you: Morgan in the modern era.

The sister of King Arthur goes by many names: sorceress, kingmaker, death-wielder, mother, lover, goddess. "The Myth of Morgan la Fey" reveals her true identity through a comprehensive investigation of the famed enchantress' evolution - or devolution - over the past millennium and its implications for gender relations today. While Western culture consistently seeks to control female sexuality by categorizing a woman's identity into either a mother or a lover, i.e. a Madonna or a whore, Morgan offers a unique duality, a refusal to let her identity be fractured. Here, Kristina P��rez makes the connection between the tension between those two roles and Morgan la Fey's descent within Arthurian legend from goddess to witch.
