review Mütter und Amazonen
3 étoiles
Eckstein-Diener, behind the penname Sir Galahad, gives you a survey of the knowledge about history and forms of matriarchic societies of her time (that is a about 1930 ). interesting points : the language or style of Oswald Spengler, omnipresent in the whole book. it's an interesting thought for a study to follow the roots and branches of this kind of speaking and hot headed discussing throughout humanities the chapter about the spartans is kind of funny in a lewd way. it's all '300' in a fanfiction, but pretending to be science.
but be warned, it has the careless racism of it's time and doesn't shy cruelty in the name of traditions, which you have just to understand properly.
