Original brochure. Zustand: Gut. 204 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Chipped and lightly soiled binding. Otherwise in very good condition. - Content: The Uses of Greek Mythology offers an overview of Greek mythology - what it is like, where it comes from, and where it fits in Greek history and landscape. Ken Dowden outlines the uses Greeks made of myth and the uses to which myth can be put in recovering the richness of their culture. This book begins by considering the nature of Greek myth and goes on to show the diversity of the ways the Greeks used myth. 'Greek mythology' forms a virtually closed system, and Dowden considers how it was formed and who its creators were. Special emphasis is given to the way the Greeks themselves viewed their mythology and the way they did not quite distinguish it from history. The investigation sheds light on many aspects of Greek history and culture: prehistory, including the supposed Trojan War; ethnic identity and the rival claims of cities; the importance of cult-sites; the language and practices of initiation; the meaning of gods, heroes, monsters and legendary kings; the rejection of matriarchy and the establishment of the boundaries of sexual behaviour. Ken Dowden is Lecturer in the Department of Classics, University of Birmingham. ISBN 9780415061353 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 293. Artikel-Nr. 1169033
