Robert A. Segal introduces the reader to the array of approaches to the study of myth that have arisen in the past few hundred years. These approaches hail from the disciplines of anthropology, sociology, psychology, literary criticism, philosophy, and religious studies. What unites them are the questions they ask: what is the origin, what is the function, and what is the subject matter of myth? The theories differ in their answers to these questions, and even in which questions they emphasize. The theorists covered include Tylor, Frazier, Malinowski, Eliade, Levi-Strauss, Freud, Jung, Frye, and Girard. Segal tests them all by their applicability to the famous ancient myth of Adonis.
