The thesis on the origins of magic and religion that it elaborates "will be long and laborious," Frazer warns readers, "but may possess ... Læs mere

  • On Greek Religion

    af Robert C.T. Parker ...
    Serier Bog 60 - Cornell Studies in Classical Philology

The materials that bear on it far outreach an individual's capacity to assimilate: so many casual allusions in so many literary texts over more than a millennium, so many direct or indirect references in so many inscriptions from so many places in the Greek world, such an overwhelming ...

    af Professor Marianne Govers Hopman ...
    What's in a name? Using the example of a famous monster from Greek myth, this book challenges the dominant view that a mythical symbol denotes a single, clear-cut 'figure' and proposes instead to define the name 'Scylla' as a combination of three concepts – sea, dog and woman – whose articulation changes over time. While archaic and classical Greek versions usually emphasize the metaphorical ... Læs mere
