AUTHOR
SUMMARY
Drawing from Eastern and Western literatures, Heinrich Zimmer presents a selection of stories linked together by their common concern for the problem of our eternal conflict with the forces of evil. Beginning with a tale from the Arabian Nights, this theme unfolds in legends from Irish paganism, medieval Christianity, the Arthurian cycle, and early Hinduism. In the retelling of these tales, Zimmer discloses the meanings within their seemingly unrelated symbols and suggests the philosophical wholeness of this assortment of myth.Zimmer, Heinrich Robert is the author of 'King and the Corpse Tales of the Soul's Conquest of Evil' with ISBN 9780691017761 and ISBN 069101776X.
