Reviews
"Its great virtue lies in its bringing together of material in various fields--literature, philosophy, art, history--in order to characterize basic ways of thinking in a culture." -- Bryn Mawr Classical Review, "The myths of Centaurs and Amazons are particularly illuminating; here we see a conceptual parallelism of beast and woman that have to be defeated to ensure the survival of Hellenism itself. . . . The picture that emerges from Professor duBois's investigations of the archaic and classical periods is not a very pretty one to contemplate, but the lessons are there to be learned." --Gregory Nagy, Harvard University
