Zeus by Ken Dowden




Second hand / Antiquarian
Published: Routledge, Abingdon 2006 (part of 'Gods and Goddesses of the Ancient World' series) 
Condition: Fine, as new. Hardback issued without dust jacket.

"The first book to capture a complete picture of the most important of Greek gods in one reliable volume for almost seventy years, this masterly and comprehensive study brings a new-millennium examination of the fascinating god Zeus.

Broad in scope, the book looks at myth, art, cult, philosophy, drama, theology and European painting amongst much more, and allows us to take seriously what it was to worship and respect the greatest of Greek gods, and to live through the aftershock of the Middle Ages and modern times."
