"An integrated, historical, broad-based, wide-ranging general
study of the interpretation of myth that covers all the major
schools and shows how they relate to one another, grow out of one
another and are still interesting today. He enlightens his deep
understanding with wit and delight and a clear, lucent style. A
superb achievement." Barry Powell, University of
Wisconsin-Madison
"What Csapo has done is lucid, illuminating, refreshing and
extremely informative. I recommend it to anyone looking for an
intellectually engaging overview of theories of interpretation of
myth." University of Toronto Quarterly<!--end-->
"It should certainly be in all academic libraries." Journal
of Classics Teaching
"It is a pity that J.G. Frazer appropriated the title "The Golden Bough". This image is far better suited to Csapo's luminous guide through a forest difficult to see for the trees." Phoenix
