Lilith, Medusas, Sirens and other Femme Fatales Menacing Femininity: Lilith, Medusas, Sirens and other Femme Fatales

Man fears that his strength will be taken from him by woman, dreads becoming infected with her femininity and then proving himself a weakling. Sigmund Freud, “The Taboo of Virginity”, 1918.

Lilith – basrilief - Mesopotamia 1950 B.C.

Dante Gabriel Rossetti 1828-82 Lilith, published 1870 republished with the title Body’s Beauty 1881

Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Lady Lilith 1863

Of Adam's first wife, Lilith, it is told (The witch he loved before the gift of Eve,) That, ere the snake's, her sweet tongue could deceive, And her enchanted hair was the first gold. And still she sits, young while the earth is old, And, subtly of herself contemplative, Draws men to watch the bright web she can weave, Till heart and body and life are in its hold.

The rose and poppy are her flower; for where Is he not found, O Lilith, whom shed scent And soft-shed kisses and soft sleep shall snare? Lo! as that youth's eyes burned at thine, so went Thy spell through him, and left his straight neck bent And round his heart one strangling golden hair.
