<p>"A comparative history of one specific mythographic path from Freud to our day, this work explores the many branches of classical psychoanalytic criticism, excluding those...who strayed from the orthodox path." --William G. Doty, The University of Alabama/Tuscaloosa, <em>Religious Studies Review</em></p>

This book surveys the history of psychoanalytic treatments of myths variously as symptoms of psychopathology, as cultural defense mechanisms, and as metaphoric expressions of ideas that may include therapeutic insights.
