Myth : its meaning and functions in ancient and other cultures

by G. S. Kirk

Developed from the 1969 Sather lectures, this study examines the nature, meaning and function of myths. It analyses the relationship between myth, ritual and folktale, critiquing structuralist theories and exploring Near Eastern and Greek mythology.
