Reclamation of a Queen: Guinevere in Modern Fantasy by Barbara Ann Gordon-Wide (Greenwood Press) is a 1991 study of Guinevere in the Arthurian Cycle.

Description: "The evolution of the portrayal of Queen Guinevere from the largely negative image beginning in the Middle Ages to the revisionist treatments of modern fantasy writers is studied from a Jungian-feminist perspective. Using a revised quaternary of feminine archetypes, Gordon-Wide demonstrates how Guinevere embodied negative aspects of the archetypes of Mother, Maiden, Wise Woman, and Warrior and how speculative theories of primitive goddess worship have been used by modern fantasy writers to create a Guinevere that reflects ongoing feminist concerns."
