| Summary: | This book is a major contribution to the understanding of Greek religion and the first to be published specifically on the subject in English. It is a highly original and profound examination of the myths and rites of the bisexual figure in Classical Antiquity. The theme is illustrated with material from classical sources and a fascinating subject is thoroughly explored from an historical and psychological aspect, providing what is, in effect, the psychoanalysis of a myth. |
