Grimm's exhaustive study in comparative mythology and religion, Deutsche Mythologie, was first published in German in 1835: this English translation, published between 1880 and 1888, is of the posthumous fourth German edition of 1875. Drawing on his knowledge of language and world mythology, Grimm outlines a wide variety of themes in Germanic folklore (such as time, creation, destiny and the soul), comparing them to classical and oriental tales as well as charting the influence of Christianity on legends and on Pagan religion. Volume 1 focuses on religion, worship and the portrayal of gods and their powers. Erudite and full of insight, this is an invaluable resource for scholars of mythology and religion as well as of German cultural history.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 216mmItem Length: 140mmItem Width: 25mmItem Weight: 570gAuthor: Jacob GrimmTranslator: James Steven StallybrassContributor: James Steven Stallybrass (Translated by)Genre: Society & CultureTopic: Social Sciences, Language & ReferenceBook Series: Teutonic Mythology 4 Volume SetRelease Year: 2012 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
