DACH Geneva Book Club - February 2023
Our February 2023 book is The Alphabet Versus the Goddess: The Conflict Between Word and Image by Leonard Shlain. From Amazon:
This groundbreaking book proposes that the rise of alphabetic literacy reconfigured the human brain and brought about profound changes in history, religion, and gender relations. Making remarkable connections across brain function, myth, and anthropology, Dr. Shlain shows why pre-literate cultures were principally informed by holistic, right-brain modes that venerated the Goddess, images, and feminine values.
Please join us even if you haven't read the book!
Additional information about this (and future) event(s) can be found here.
