Περιγραφή
Σύνοψη:Robert Segal's addition to the ‘Very Short Introductions’ series by Oxford University Press provides clarity and insight into the range of theories on myth that have evolved over the last two hundred years. With the emergence of the scientific disciplines in the mid nineteenth century, there was also the emergence of new approaches to myth: Segal introduces the student of myth to the fascinating spectrum of theories on myth from this period onwards. He divides the text into eight different theoretical ‘approaches’ or ‘contexts’ for the study of myth: science, philosophy, religion, ritual, literature, psychology, structure and society.
