Gehört zur Reihe
In this groundbreaking study, Jean Pierre-Vernant delineates a compelling new vision of ancient Greece. Myth and Society in Ancient Greece takes us far from the calm and familiar images of Polykleitos and the Parthenon to reveal a fundamentally other culture: one of slavery, of masks and death, of scapegoats, of ritual hunting and ecstasies. Vernant's provocative discussion of various institutions and practices including war, marriage, and sacrifice details the complex intersection of the religious, social, and political structures of ancient Greece. The book concludes with Vernant's authoritative genealogy of the study of myth from antiquity to structuralism and beyond. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

The back cover of the book bills the latter essay as containing a "critique of structuralism," which is something of an exaggeration if not simplification, probably meant to generate interest. Vernant does indeed discuss Levi-Strauss' work and outline certain reservations. His argument here is not totally original, but is still well-put, and he does not at all discount Levi-Strauss' approach, but rather sees it as an "incontournable" innovation in the scientific approach to the study of myth that needs to be integrated into a broader program that takes into account social and historical context.
