Descrição:
"In the Footsteps of Orpheus" by R.F. Paget. Published in the United Kingdom in 1967 by the Scientific Book Club. RARE BOOK! With B&W photographs."Is the story of Orpheus in the Underworld merely a legend, a figment of the Ancients' picturesque imagination, or is it, like the story of the Trojan War, based on historical fact? Dr. Paget, with his colleague Keith JOnes, set out to do the same for Vergil, and to discover the entrance to the Underworld and the Oracle of the Dead by the crater of Avernus, directing his steps according to clues in the Aeneid...This remarkable book brings the past to life with a description of the ancient rituals, reconstructed on the very site that Vergil knew."
Book is in Very Good condition. Corners are bumped a bit. Staining on the top page edges. Interior is in Great condition. Dustjacket is in Near Fine condition. A little creasing at the corners. Slight other wear/creasing on the edges of the DJ.

51 volumes complete with diagrams, illustrations, plates, maps, figures, indexes. Quarto (10 1/4" x 8 1/2") issued in wrappers. Some reprints, most first editions.Current Anthropology, whose first issue was launched in 1959, is one of the discipline's oldest and most distinguished journals, and has been sponsored since its founding by the Wenner-Gren Foundation. The journal was the first of its kind, championing an interdisciplinary approach alongside a commitment to international dialogue, while fostering a community of international scholars. It became known for its innovative format that combined major research papers with responses solicited from the field. The format, now known as the "CA treatment" was unique in its time and was copied by other journals such as Behavioral and Brain Sciences. While the journal has changed over the years, its original principles are still clearly present and can be traced back to the unique collaboration between the Foundation, led by Paul Fejos,and the…
