Condition: Sehr gut. X, 214 p. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Overall very good and clean. - The major works of James Frazer, T. S. Eliot, Northrop Frye, and Joseph Campbell all appropriate a vast array of cultural material that is then reduced to a master mythic narrative of "universal truths." In this book Marc Manganaro analyzes the rhetorical ploys and the readings of myths that these authors use to establish their respective "voices of authority." Manganaro argues that all four authors were able to fashion order from a dazzling maze of culture by adopting the comparative method of anthropology. The use of this method enabled them to read cultural material in various ways: as a collection of cultural "facts"; as a complex web through which one can discern evolutionary patterns; as the manifestation of mythic essence fusing subject and object; as an aesthetic product that transcends historical placement and resists empirical testing; and as a mosaic of the "fragments" of dying culture that are being rescued by the author-comparativist. Drawing on the poetic and political connections between anthropology and literary criticism, Manganare analyzes the aesthetics and semiotics governing each author's mythic texts and exposes their ideological and political parameters. He evaluates the rhetorical subtleties of, among other things, Frazer's evolutionary theory, Eliot's figures for a wasted culture, Frye's fascination with the tropes of the Bible, and Campbell's apparently egalitarian message of self-realization through myth. - Marc Manganaro is assistant professor of English at Rutgers University.
