Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. Bollingen Series XLVI, Second paperback printing, 1974. 195pp. Translated from the French by Willard R. Trask. Tight paper copy, erstwhile remainder, unread, in Very Good condition (intact but shopworn mustard/green/blue covers & tiny red stamp on top edge, o/w unmarked). "This is an essay on mankind's experience of history and its interpretation, beginning with a study of the traditional or mythological view, and concluding with a comparative estimate of modern historiological approaches. At a moment when modern man has brought his race almost to the point of annihilation, the historical attitude has been all but discredited. The author seeks an answer to the question: What can protect us from the terror of history?" [publisher copy] "I consider it the most significant of my books; and when I am asked in what order they should be read, I always recommend beginning with THE MYTH OF THE ETERNAL RETURN."--Mircea Eliade, from the Preface. "A luminous, profound, and extremely stimulating work. . . Eliade's thesis is that ancient man envisaged events not as constituting a linear, progressive history, but simply as so many creative repetitions of primordial archetypes. . . This is an essay which everyone interested in the history of religion and in the mentality of ancient man will have to read. It is difficult to speak too highly of it."--Theodore H. Gaster. VG paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, clean pages, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine.
