Omschrijving

The Myth of the Descent into Hades is a book written by Jane Ellen Harrison, a renowned scholar of Greek mythology. The book explores the ancient Greek myth of the descent into Hades, which tells the story of the goddess Persephone being abducted by the god of the underworld, Hades, and taken to his realm. Harrison examines the various versions of the myth and the cultural significance it held in ancient Greece. She argues that the myth was not simply a tale of a young girl's abduction, but rather a complex story that held deep symbolic meaning for the Greeks. The book delves into the themes of death, rebirth, and the relationship between the living and the dead in Greek mythology. Harrison also explores the role of women in the myth and the ways in which it reflects the patriarchal society of ancient Greece.Overall, The Myth of the Descent into Hades is a fascinating and insightful exploration of one of the most enduring myths of ancient Greece. It offers a unique perspective on the myth and its cultural significance, making it an essential read for anyone interested in Greek mythology and ancient history.THIS 84 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Myths of the Odyssey in Art and Literature, by Jane Ellen Harrison.
