Foundation Myths in Ancient Societies: Dialogues and Discourses
Naoise Mac Sweeney
Why did so many ancient communities have not one, but several, foundation myths? This book addresses the phenomenon of plural foundation myths, exploring examples from across classical antiquity. It makes the case for understanding foundation myths not as stand-alone stories, but as elements within a wider discourse of origins.
