Opis

Sarah Iles Johnston argues that the nature of myths as gripping tales starring vivid characters enabled them to do their most important work: sustaining belief in the gods and heroes of Greek religion. She shows how Greek myths-and the stories told by all cultures-affect our shared view of the cosmos and the creatures who inhabit it.
