The Homeric Gods
Author: Walter Friedrich Otto
Publisher: Mimesis
ISBN: 9788857523996
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In many respects, this book is considered to be the best guide ever written on Homeric religion. The analysis by W. F. Otto, while being very careful in terms of interpretation, denotes an open consonance of the author with the spirit - sometimes brutal and, for our mentality, immoral - of Greek polytheism. A thrilling and amazing journey to Olympus. This is a new edition of the Pantheon Books (New York) 1952 publication.
