内容説明

This work retells the world's major myths and legends, and gives a clear reference guide to who was who, where was where and what was what. In addition to over 2500 A-Z entries of myths, motifs, locations and characters, there are generic essays and essays about the various traditions, organized by location. The essays discuss the kinds of myth each area has produced, and their relationship to local geography, culture and religions. The guide explores the major myth traditions of every continent, from the Americas and Middle East to Europe and Africa. The origins and historical significance of each legend are examined and recurring motifs are traced through the ages and around the world.
