The Philosophy of Symbolic Forms: Volume 2: Mythical Thought

By Ernst Cassirer

Book Overview

The Symbolic Forms has long been considered the greatest of Cassirer's works. Into it he poured all the resources of his vast learning about language and myth, religion, art, and science-the various creative symbolizing activities and constructions through which man has expressed himself and given intelligible objective form to his experience.
