Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Greek and Roman Folklore' explores the fascinating tapestry of popular beliefs, superstitions, and traditional narratives that shaped the daily lives of ancient Greeks and Romans. Authored by William Reginald Halliday, this scholarly yet accessible work delves into the origins and evolution of myths, legends, and folk practices, distinguishing between the sophisticated literary mythology of the elite and the enduring oral traditions of the common people. The book examines various aspects of ancient life, including magical practices, omens, and the cultural transmission of stories across the Mediterranean world. By analyzing the survival of these traditions into later eras, Halliday provides invaluable insights into the psychological and social underpinnings of classical civilization. Greek and Roman Folklore serves as an essential resource for students of classics, anthropology, and mythology, offering a clear-eyed perspective on the continuity of human thought and the rich heritage of Mediterranean folk wisdom.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
