Inhaltsangabe
This is a companion volume to Olderr's Symbolism: A Comprehensive Dictionary. The earlier dictionary was arranged by symbol and told what the meanings were. The present work goes the other way (but it is not simply a refiguring of the data). It presents ideas, situations or objects (ancient to modern), and gives the appropriate symbols (allusions, associations, attributes, or emblems).
Some examples are: one of the symbols for "hell" is descending stairs; an attribute of Saint Benedict is a raven; joy after sorrow is symbolized by the gemstone amber. Literary, artistic, religious, heraldic, numerological, folkloric, occult, psychological, and biblical usages are included.

Reseña del editor
In 1986, Mr. Olderr wrote the hugely successful Symbolism: A Comprehensive Dictionary. It was arranged by symbol and told what the meanings were. The present work goes the other way (but it is not simply a refiguring of the data). It presents ideas, situations or objects (ancient to modern), and gives the symbols (allusions, associations, attributes, or emblems). Literary, artistic, religious, heraldic, numerological, folkloric, occult, psychological, and biblical usages are included.
