Images of Women in the Modern West is a trilogy authored by the sociologist Isabelle Anchieta. The author traces the process of humanization and individualization of women through images, from the end of the Middle Ages to the Modern. The result of eight years of field research in various countries, the work is divided into three volumes. The first establishes a dialogue between the images of the witches of the Middle Ages and those of the Indian Tupinambas cannibals; the second focuses on the different representations of Maria and Maria Magdalena; the last volume explores the transgressions of Hollywood stars. The works feature presentations by historian Lilia Schwarcz, sociologist Maria Arminda do Nascimento Arruda, and anthropologist Máximo Canevacci.
