Jacob Bryant

    Jacob Bryant bol britský učenec a mythograf, ktorého opísali ako „výraznú postavu medzi mythagogmi, ktorí sa rozvíjali na konci 18. a na začiatku 19. storočia“. Jeho rozsiahle dielo sa ponára do hĺbky starovekých mýtov a ich interpretácií. Bryantov odkaz spočíva v jeho schopnosti odhaliť skryté významy a symboliku, ktoré formovali kultúrne a filozofické myslenie svojej doby.
