Synopsis

Myth is universal - a common heritage to all humanity. But it is by no means confined to primitive and pagan lore, and this work proves it to be a vital part of contemporary life. The myths and legends in this book, gathered during a lifetime's travels, are re-imagined on the ground where they originally occurred, providing a sense of place for each tale. The volume demonstrates that myth continues to excite and through primitive, pagan, sacred and scientific myth, awareness of the world in daily life can be deepend, refined, and refreshed.
