Description

"Explores the insufficiency of all theories of myth to satisfactorily cover and explain all Greek cases, and does so by studying concrete examples. There is also an attempt to highlight what differentiates Greek myths from those of other traditions. An explanation and continuation of Kirk 1970; these works together constitute an excellent introduction to the subject." Oxford Bibliographies Online
