A regiment of women warriors strides across the battlefield of German culture - on the stage, in the opera house, on the page, in paintings and prints. This book examines representations of the transgressive figure of the woman warrior from Cranach's painting of Judith, to Schiller's Joan of Arc, Wagner's Brünnhilde, and Fritz Lang's Brünhild.
