母权论:对古代世界母权制宗教性和法权性的探究

Book •
John J. Bachofen's 'Das Mutterrecht' (commonly translated as 'Mother Right' or here 'On the Divine Law of the Mother') presents a stage-based theory of cultural evolution in which matriarchal or mother-right societies preceded patriarchal ones.

Drawing on mythology, ancient law, and classical texts, Bachofen argued that early human societies worshipped a mother-goddess and organized lineage and property through women, which later gave way to male-dominated systems.

His work was foundational for later debates about prehistoric gender systems, though criticized for speculative methodology.

Despite methodological issues, Bachofen's ideas stimulated comparative studies and inspired later researchers interested in goddess cultures and matrilineal societies.
