Warner Marina edited and with An Introduction by
Wonder Tales
New York: Farrar Straus & Giroux. New in New dust jacket. 1996. First Publisher Edition. Hardcover. Once upon a time in the Paris of Louis XIV five ladies and a gentleman - all of them urbane aristocrats - seized on the new enthusiasm for "Mother Goose stories" and decided to write some of them down. Telling stories resourcefully and artfully was a key social grace for them and when they wrote down these elegant narratives they consciously invented the modern fairy tale as we still know it today. For this beautiful anthology of six masterpiece Wonder Tales Marine Warner invited the collaboration of five writers with a special sympathy for the French stories they render her in burnished cunning and amusing English. "The White Cat" "The Subtle Princess" "Bearskin" "Starlight" The Counterfeit Marquise" and "The Great Green Worm" are as unforgettable today as they were when they were first published centuries ago. Wonder was the key to the stories and each tale abounds with transformations and magic. Drawings included. ; 16mo - over 5¾ - 6¾" tall . Farrar Straus & Giroux hardcover

Warner Rex Foreword
Encyclopedia of World Mythology
Galahad Books NY 1975. 1st edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. "Every people in the world has its own myths; but it is very obvious that many of their myths are strikingly similar. These similarities may be accounted for by assuming a common racial origin at a very remote period as for example in the case of the Indo-Europeans who are also linked by language. But sometimes are found in the stories of peoples who can have had no geographical or racial connections with each other. Human beings it would seem while unlike each other in many ways have always still more in common and their imagination when confronted with similar events will react to them in much the same way."

Werner Daniel S.
MYTH AND PHILOSOPHY IN PLATO'S PHAEDRUS
Cambridge University Press. Near Fine. 2012. Hardcover. 1107021286 . Very light bump to one corner else new. Pictorial boards. ; 307 pages; Plato's dialogues frequently criticize traditional Greek myth yet Plato also integrates myth with his writing. Daniel S. Werner confronts this paradox through an in-depth analysis of the Phaedrus Plato's most mythical dialogue. Werner argues that the myths of the Phaedrus serve several complex functions: they bring nonphilosophers into the philosophical life; they offer a starting point for philosophical inquiry; they unify the dialogue as a literary and dramatic whole; they draw attention to the limits of language and the limits of knowledge; and they allow Plato to co-opt cultural authority as a way of defining and legitimating the practice of philosophy. Platonic myth as a species of traditional tale is thus both distinct from philosophical dialectic and similar to it. Ultimately the most powerful effect of Platonic myth is the way in which it leads readers to participate in Plato's dialogues and to engage in a process of self-examination. .

A professional anthropologist recounts his experiences outside the bounds of normal reality tracing his numerous journeys across space and time his exchanges with shape-shifters spirit guardians and a Hawaiian mystic from several centuries into the future. From Publishers Weekly While living on the flank of an active Hawaiian volcano between 1985 and 1989 anthropologist Wesselman reports he had a series of visionary experiences. Projected 5000 years into the future into the consciousness of a Hawaiian kahuna or shamanic healer named Nainoa Wesselman presumably learned firsthand that Western civilization had been destroyed by a sudden rise in the ocean level. Through his paranormal interactions with Nainoa across the millennia Wesselman has adventures in the spirit world and also watches as a band of Hawaiian natives who survived the cataclysm sail to the former California coast to rediscover the lost devastated continent of North America. Fans of Carlos Castaneda's books may relate to these detailed premonitory visions fleshed out with observations of Hawaiian shamanism. Wesselman lectures on shamanism and witchcraft at Sierra College in California. QPB main selection. Copyright 1995 Reed Business Information Inc. Review Fans of Carlos Castaneda will relish this anthropologist's similar probe of the spirit world. Enjoy a spiritual autobiography which recounts life-changing encounters which began as dreams but grew to take him on visionary journeys and experiences which brought him in touch with spirit helpers and guardians. -- Midwest Book Review.
