Death and the Maiden (Routledge Revivals) (eBook, ePUB)

Girls' Initiation Rites in Greek Mythology

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Death and the Maiden, first published in 1989, contextualises this mythology in terms of geography, history and culture, and offers a comprehensive theory firmly grounded in an ubiquitous ritual: pubescent girls' rites of passage. By means of comparative anthropology, it is argued that many local ceremonies are echoed throughout the whole range of myths, both famous and obscure.
