Introduction. The Mythology of Priapus. Priapus in Classical Literature. Priapus in a Twientieth-Century Story. Physical Priapism. Stages of the Phallic Quest. Phase I: Exposition. Phase II: Development. Phase III: Resolution. Conclusions
In this book Priapus is seen as both an apt metaphor for modern-day patriarchy's inflation--its grandiosity and search for more and more power--and an image compensating the individual's lack of connection with a masculinity balanced by the feminine.
