Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

THE MARRIAGE OF CADMUS AND HARMONY is a book without any modern parallel. Forming an active link in a chain that reaches back through Ovid's METAMORPHOSES directly to Homer, Roberto Calasso's re-exploration of the fantastic fables and mysteries we may only think we know explodes the entire world of Greek mythology, pieces it back together, and presents it to us in a new, and astonishing, and utterly contempory way.

Reseña del editor:

Forming a link in a chain that reaches back through Ovid's "Metamorphoses" directly to Homer, Roberto Calasso's re-exploration of the fantastic fables and mysteries, we may only think we know, explores the entire world of Greek mythology and pieces it back together. This book was the winner of the Charles Veillon European Essay Writing Prize in 1991.
