extract from an article by A.C. MASQUELET :
..."In the 17th century, Amsterdam and the United Provinces were among Europe’s foremost scientific centres. The quest for knowledge, and for anatomical knowledge in particular, was not seen to be in conflict with religion. At the same time, in Italy, Galileo was standing trial for his views.

He can be seen as a metaphor for the human search of self-knowledge. Joseph Campbell outlines three steps of the hero: separation-initiation-return. He emphasizes the hero not only conquers the problem, but returns to society to "bestow boons on his fellow people." (Thousand 30).

Mother
The concept of an Earth Mother or Mother Goddess or Great Goddess derives primarily from the Greeks. In the Theogony, written in the early 7th century BCE, the poet Hesiod named the "deep-breasted" Earth Gaea, "a firm seat of all things for ever," who, after emerging out of Chaos, brought forth "starry Ouranus" (the sky), Mountains, the sea, and, after having lain with Ouranus, a number of non-cosmological Titans.
