Northrop Frye on Myth

"...this work offers both depth and comprehensiveness with copious references to other secondary sources." -- Religious Studies Review"This book will be welcomed by those working across the boundaries of literary theory, mythology and theology. It also stands as a defence of Frye as a radical Christian thinker in his own right, fusing narrative with doctrine." -- Religion
