Longtemps, la philosophie a été affaire d'hommes, même si les femmes s'y sont intéressées. On trouve un exemple de l'effet de cet « angle mort » masculin à la fin de Sein und Zeit, lorsque Heidegger exclut en une phrase la naissance de l'existence humaine. Déjà problématique en soi, cette exclusion ne peut se faire sans emporter avec elle celle de la mère, laissant la question philosophique de son existence irrésolue. Une lecture critique de Sein und Zeit de ce point de vue montre que l'ontologie heideggérienne se nourrit d'une métaphore matricielle. Ayant aboli la naissance, donc la mère, du discours philosophique, Heidegger ne s'y réfère pas moins, mais par voie métaphorique. Le travail sur cette métaphore amène à une phénoménologie de la mère et de l'être-né. En rapport avec Le Deuxième Sexe de Simone de Beauvoir, la philosophie de la mère est proposée comme une pensée féministe de la naissance et de la procréation.

"In ancient Babylon she was Anat, in Egypt, Isis and Hathor, Dana in Celtic Ireland, Rhea and Demeter in Greece, and in India, Anapurna the "Provider." She is the Great Goddess, the symbol of earth and the giver of life, the Vast Mother, who represented all the powers and mysteries of creation for our ancestors." "In this comprehensive exploration of the Goddess figure, Jean Markale, one of today's foremost Celtic historians, examines how over time patriarchal societies tried to force the preeminent power of the feminine into an obscure and subservient position, shifting her solar association onto masculine deities and discrediting those of her symbols, like the serpent, that could not be easily assimilated. With its extensive investigation of all the myths, sites, and sanctuaries devoted to this influential figure, The Great Goddess provides us with abundant evidence of the extraordinary permanence of her worship--even at the heart of those religions that tried to destroy her." "Markale explains how the Goddess did not simply disappear when her position was usurped, but went underground, resurfacing time and again in altered but distinctly recognizable forms. The great solar goddess of Celtic culture reappears as the mythical Grainne and in the well-known legend of Tristan and Iseult. Features of the primordial Lilith, relegated to darkness in rabbinical tradition, can be discerned in the incomprehensible Black Virgins of Christian sanctuaries. And one of the key figures of modern Christianity, the Virgin Mary, possesses all the characteristics of the ancient Mother Goddess: wisdom, beneficence, nurturance, and sacred sexuality. Whether in Ancient Egypt, the Roman Empire, Celtic Europe, or the present day, the goddess played, and continues to play, an integral part in society's need to connect with the source of all creation.

The goddess Išḫara is attested early in cuneiform sources, and her cult can be traced back in all regions of the Ancient Near East over a period of more than 2000 years. From this point of view, it is worthwhile to look at her integration into the Hittite pantheon and try to identify changes and continuities in her figure and present some ideas about the circumstances under which the process of integration took place.
