| Description | The book offers absorbing articles about the role of a myth in both pagan and Christian antiquity (R. Dostálová, M. Pardyová, L. Chvátal, M. Šedina, M. Havrda, J. Šubrt, V. Němec), about literary and philosophic treatment of mythologic themes in the Middle Ages (K. Smolak, L. Karfíková, A. Vidmanová, W. Engelbrecht), about the remarkable linkage of Renaissance thinking and Christian antiquity as far as myth interpretation is concerned (T. Nejeschleba, F. Karfík), about the early modern perspective on ancient gods (J. Engelbrechtová, J. Bouzek), about the myth as a device of manneristic interpretation of political reality (J. Bažant, M. Štědroň) and about other aspects of the second life of the antique myth in modern times. |
