Myth and Reality Eliade, Mircea; Trask, Willard R. (translator)
Acceptable.
Paperback. Softcover reprint 1968 Harper Torchbooks. Pencil underlining/brackets sparsely throughout. Pages bright; binding tight; spine uncreased. Only light wear. 212pp. Language: English. Cover illustration by noted artist Pat Steir. '[I]nformative guide to the modern mythologies. This classic study, translated from the original French, deals primarily with societies around the world in which myth is--or was until very recently--living, in the sense that it supplies models for human behavior and, by that very fact, gives meaning and value to life. The author believes that understanding the structure and function of myths in these traditional societies serves to clarify a stage in the history of human thought: myths reveal that the World, man, and life have a supernatural origin and history, and that this history is significant, precious, and exemplary.'--from the publisher.
