Jane Ellen Harrison Knihy
Jane Ellen Harrison bola britská klasicistka a lingvistka, ktorá patrila k zakladateľom moderných štúdií starogréckeho náboženstva a mytológie. Svoje interpretácie antických gréckych náboženských predstáv, založené na archeologických objavoch 19. storočia, sa stali štandardom pre budúci výskum. Harrisonová, ako jedna z prvých žien v Anglicku s akademickou kariérou, sa aktívne zasadzovala za volebné právo žien, hoci sama o jeho výkone pochybovala. Jej dielo naďalej formuje naše chápanie antického sveta.

Mythos: Prolegomena to the Study of Greek Religion

Jane Harrison examines the festivals of ancient Greek religion to identify the primitive "substratum" of ritual and its persistence in the realm of classical religious observance and literature. In Harrison's preface to this remarkable book, she writes that J. G. Frazer's work had become part and parcel of her "mental furniture" and that of others studying primitive religion. Today, those who write on ancient myth or ritual are bound to say the same about Harrison. Her essential ideas, best developed and most clearly put in the Prolegomena, have never been eclipsed.
