Specificatii
An examination of the myths of the Moon goddess and how she
appeared to the original creators of those myths in ancient
Greece.Waxing and waning and reborn with each new month, the Moon
has always been the supreme symbol of cyclical change in the
western world. Metaphorical representations of the Moon's goddess
also seem to undergo similar changes, each new century reinventing
her in its own image. For Hesiod, she was a distant figure in the
celestial pantheon, to Keats she was an intimate muse; Selene's
recurring role in music, literature, and song is a powerful
testament to our continued fascination with her myth.A deeply
erudite and meticulously researched survey, this book explores the
perennial curiosity our closest orbital neighbor continues to
instill, providing at once an unprecedented body of historical
research and a critical armature for the author's lauded prose
reverie Somnium. Despite the importance of the Moon to recent
developments in esoteric scholarship and mythography, Selene
doesn't attempt to present a Moon-Goddess for the twenty-first
century, but rather looks at the myths of one specific Moon goddess
and how she appeared to the original creators of those myths in the
literature of ancient Greece. In doing so, Selene marks the point
at which classical scholarship comes closest to a physical embrace
with its ethereal subject matter.An impeccable and flawlessly
researched piece of classical scholarship. -- Alan Moore
