"Television's Buffy the Vampire Slayer represents the heroine's journey. This study explores how Buffy blends 1990s girl power and the path of the warrior woman with mythic traditions. It chronicles her descent into death and subsequent return. Buffy experiences the classic heroine's quest, ascending to protector and queen in this timeless metaphor for growing into adulthood"--Provided by publisher.
