Müller Max (Müller Friedrich Maximilian)
Nouvelles études de mythologie. Traduites de l'anglais par Léon Job, Docteur ès lettres, professeur au lycée de Nancy
In-8°, pp. X, 651, 30 di catalogo editoriale, brossura originale verde acqua inquadrata. Ampi indici finali. Bell'esemplare protetto da velina. Prima edizione in lingua francese di questo importantissimo studio di mitologia comparata del Müller (Dessau, 1823-Oxford, 1900), il grande orientalista, filologo, glottologo e filosofo tedesco ritenuto, appunto, l'autentico padre dello studio comparativo dei culti religiosi. L'opera segna l'effettivo punto d'inizio dei moderni studi di mitlogia comparata. I miti sono considerati espressioni spontanee del pensare popolare, la cui irrazionalità è da ricondursi a deficienze correlate all'attività linguistica, da cui la concezione del mito come "malattia del linguaggio".

Nagy Gregory
THE ANCIENT GREEK HERO IN 24 HOURS
Belknap Press. Near Fine in Fine dust jacket. 2013. Hardcover. 0674073401 . Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; The ancient Greeks� concept of �the hero� was very different from what we understand by the term today Gregory Nagy argues�and it is only through analyzing their historical contexts that we can truly understand Achilles Odysseus Oedipus and Herakles. In Greek tradition a hero was a human male or female of the remote past who was endowed with superhuman abilities by virtue of being descended from an immortal god. Despite their mortality heroes like the gods were objects of cult worship. Nagy examines this distinctively religious notion of the hero in its many dimensions in texts spanning the eighth to fourth centuries bce: the Homeric Iliad and Odyssey; tragedies of Aeschylus Sophocles and Euripides; songs of Sappho and Pindar; and dialogues of Plato. All works are presented in English translation with attention to the subtleties of the original Greek and are often further illuminated by illustrations taken from Athenian vase paintings. ; 752 pages .

THE BEST OF THE ACHAEANS Concepts of the Hero in Archaic Greek Poetry
The Johns Hopkins University Press. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1979. Hardcover. 0801822009 . Foxing to textblock. Scholar's bookplate to inner cover G. P. Goold. Includes 3 page typed review of book inscribed to G. P. Goold from "John" tipped in. ; Despite widespread interest in the Greek hero as a cult figure little was written about the relationship between the cult practices and the portrayals of the hero in poetry. The first edition of The Best of the Achaeans bridged that gap raising new questions about what could be known or conjectured about Greek heroes. In this revised edition which features a new preface by the author Gregory Nagy reconsiders his conclusions in the light of the subsequent debate and resumes his discussion of the special status of heroes in ancient Greek life and poetry. His book remains an engaging introduction both to the concept of the hero in Hellenic civilization and to the poetic forms through which the hero is defined: the Iliad and Odyssey in particular and archaic Greek poetry in general. ; 414 pages .

Nair Anita; Diano F. E. (cur.)
La mia magica India. Favole e miti
ill., ril. "Mia madre, Soumini, e mia nonna, Janaki, hanno appagato la mia sete di miti e leggende. E quando ho cominciato a scrivere questo libro, ho cercato di ricreare le loro storie e la loro arte nel raccontarle". Apre così la sua raccolta, ispirata al patrimonio magico e mitologico dell'India, Anita Nair. È una rivisitazione dell'immaginario della sua India quella che propone in questi racconti, rivolti in primo luogo ai bambini indiani: un universo mitologico ricco di dei, demoni, asceti, re mitici e animali magici, che sin dalla notte dei tempi scandisce la ricerca del senso della vita terrena, dell'avvicendarsi delle stagioni, dei sentimenti e delle passioni dell'animo umano, del conflitto perenne tra le forze del bene e del male. Krishna e Vishnu, Shiva e Brahma, gli asaro demoniaci sempre a caccia dell'amrita, il nettare della vita eterna, e ancora gli avatar, incarnazioni di un dio. Anita Nair trasmette questo patrimonio di fiabe e di miti alle nuove generazioni e alle altre culture. Cinquanta storie che si dipanano in un intreccio tra favola e mito; storie in ciò assai diverse da quelle della mitologia dell'Occidente: eppure, come osserva Francesca Emilia Diano, esse sono "manifestazioni che si diramano nel tempo e nello spazio in infinite direzioni e gemmazioni, che tessano trame senza fine, segnando di sé ciascuna cultura, tanto che forse non è una cultura che crea i suoi miti, ma l'opposto". Età di lettura: da 10 anni.
