Recenzii

'The clarity of writing is superb-doubtless related to the sensitive perception of myth that indicates Ellwood's great familiarity with the subject ... A very gracious history of mythological studies is admirably brought in alongside the more general explications of types of myths, and historically important mythographers are introduced quite accessibly. The book will be a superb introduction to mythological studies for a long time to come.' William G. Doty is Professor Emeritus at the University of Alabama/Tuscaloosa
