I have written about the gypsy jazz band "Les Caravanes Vagabondes" in the previous post; a friend knowing my interest in Balkans music sent me the link to Balkan Beat it, an online magazine dedicated to it.

I wrote an article about how the lioness was and is perceived compared to her husband:

Excerpt:

The lion is among the most-represented animals in human culture, across Europe, Africa and Asia: the great beast is a universal symbol of strength, royalty, justice, vigilance, protection, pride and courage even in countries where it doesn't exist in the wild.
The lion's combination of ferocity and enormous strength didn't fail to appeal to patriarchal cultures and societies, being naturally sympathetic and attracted to violence as a way to gain status, power and material gain. The lion therefore came to embody virility. But what can be said of the lioness? Did she come to embody feminity in the same way as the lion came to embody manly virtues?

The Lion's Wife

Thank you.
