Or place them in the tantalizing realm of the occult (aware that the verb "tantalize" has a mythological origin). Or believe, like Jung and his followers, that myths are the expressions of a psychic process that precedes the advent of the human race. However we define or classify myths, we know that myths are humanity's earliest answers to the mysteries of the unknown, the very foundation of our cultural and spiritual heritage. Alexander Eliot retells the age~old myths with a directness and vividness that retain their full power. Here in words and images myths from around the world are woven together into a brilliant tapestry of gods and heroes, monsters and mythic beasts, spectacular and ignominious exploits. The myths told here are not grouped in the conventional way by cultural or geographic origin. Rather, Eliot has arranged them by theme, revealing the striking recurrence of basic motifs in widely differing mythologies the world over. These motifs are basic to human thought and expression, the very fabric of life itself. Mircea Eliade introduces us to the historical development of the interpretation of myth. As historian of religions, he shares with us his brilliant insights into the meaning of myth, and he brings clarity to the philosophical interpretations of the various schools of thought. Joseph Campbell in his inimitable way traces the emergence of the basic mythologies since the last of the ice ages, following their historical and geographic development in both archaic nonliterate societies and highly literate civilizations. MYTHS, then, with its more than 1,300 illustrations carefully selected over a five~year period of research, is a comprehensive survey of the essential and universal themes of myth ~ a panoramic and unparalleled overview of world mythology.
