M.G. Lord Quote
Like the kachinas, Barbie is both toy and mythic object—modern woman and Ur-woman—navelless, motherless, an incarnation of the One Goddess with a Thousand Names. In the reservoir of communal memory that psychologist Carl Jung has termed the collective unconscious, Barbie is an archetype of something ancient, matriarchal, and profound.
