«El universo, los dioses, los hombres» is Jean-Pierre Vernant's essay on Greek mythology, in hardcover.
The Hellenist Jean-Pierre Vernant turns Greek myths into a vivid and accessible narrative: the origin of the universe, the stories of the gods, and the moments when the divine and the human cross paths and clash. A reading that brings the founding legends of Western culture within reach.
«El universo, los dioses, los hombres» was originally published in French as «L'Univers, les Dieux, les Hommes».
For humanities students, classical mythology enthusiasts, and readers who want to understand the roots of Western culture.
Jean-Pierre Vernant was a French resistant, historian and anthropologist, specialist in ancient Greece. Influenced by Claude Lévi-Strauss, Vernant developed a structuralist approach to Greek myth, tragedy, and society which would itself be influential among classical scholars. He was an honorary professor at the Collège de France.
