A careful study of the Sword & Sorcery genre places its inception in 1961 with Leiber's response to Moorcock. The ensuing years (1965-1981) brought forth a meager handful of books in the genre, which ultimately led to Conan the Barbarian (1982) and the less-than-woman-friendly DeathStalker (1983), as well as the more derivative and somehow less-feminine-centric DeathStalker II (1987).



The influences of these early forays of the genre into screenplay are easily witnessed in later live-action and animated shows as The Beastmaster, The Sword and the Sorceror, and, yes, even Korgoth of Barbaria.



My question is - was there ever any branch of this genre that forayed into modern feminism?
