Specificatii
Of all the countless legendary beasts that have been conjured forth
from the seemingly limitless capacity of the human imagination,
none can remotely compare with the dragon for its sheer diversity
of form, its symbolic significance, and its cross-cultural
presence. Dragons are everywhere-still glimpsed in the living,
breathing beasts around us that inspired and engendered their birth
in our far-distant ancestors' dreams, and nightmares; perennially
encountered in the myriad of traditional myths and folklore woven
into the fabric of every creed and culture around the world; and
ever-visible within the innumerable outpourings of artistic
creation that have graced and enhanced our species' existence
across all temporal, political, social, and geographical
boundaries. So from where, and from what, has such
widespread-indeed, worldwide-belief in these creatures stemmed?
There can be no doubt that a major factor influencing the origin of
the dragon is early humanity's observations and interactions with
various distinctive and potentially inimical creatures of reality
sharing our world. Equally thought-provoking is how and why the
dragon has become so intimately associated with our own species.
This multi-faceted monster of mythology is more than amply
represented visually, for example, by artwork of every conceivable
style, age, and category. And the dragon's status in religion,
dreams, alchemy, psychology, astrology, literature, movies, and
music is as compelling as it is complex. These many diverse but
equally captivating themes are all fully explored in this
spellbinding book's uniquely comprehensive coverage, and provide
ample confirmation that there is no sign whatsoever of waning
interest for what must surely be the most vibrant, tenacious, and
fascinating creature that has never existed-the dragon.
