Cover of Jane Ellen Harrison: Religion of Ancient Greece (ePUB)

Harrisons’ "Religion of Ancient Greece" is a symbol of the intellectual progress of the early 20th century as the formerly hegemonic importance of Rome gave way to interpreting and studying religions based on older and localized archaeological remains and prior analysis from deep antiquity. Here then we have a description of various deities, their history, and allusions to them in Homer and debate over then-contemporary historians.-Print ed.
