The persistence of myth as symbolic form

"As a central part of his philosophy of symbolic forms - as a form of religious expression, and as a political problematic - the question of myth belongs at the heart of Ernst Cassier's intellectual enterprise. Using a variety of methodological and conceptual approaches, these papers examine the persistence of myth as a symbolic form from a variety of perspectives: philosophical, anthropological, psychological, political, and historico-cultural. In its way each paper attempts, in Cassirer's phrase, to 'see the adversary face to face'."--Jacket.
