About This Item
E-177: Spring Pubns. Very Good. 1986. Paperback. Trade Paperback. 8vo. Spring Publications, Zurich, Switzerland. 1986. 104 pages. Text in English. Dunquin Series, No 7. Wrappers lightly worn with some light shelf-wear to the extremities present. Book is free of ownership marks. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. Kerenyi's book offers the most profound and interesting discussion of the trickster I have yet run across, although it is one of the briefest of books on the subject. Of course, he discusses the trickster in his ancient Greek avatar, but that is important for it allows him to make familiar connections which lead down, down to Hermes' chthonic meanings--and that is where the mystery of this god springs from. You will always learn a great deal from reading anything by this "renegade" of classicists, and this book is one of his best. E-177; Dunquin Series, No 7; 8.2 X 5.3 X 0.4 inches; 104 pages .
