Excerpt from Die Kulte und Mythen Arkadiens; Vol. 1: Die Arkadischen KulteDie Forderung einer gewissermaßen synthetischen; das will sagen; nach einzelnen Landschaften geordneten Dar stellung der griechischen Mythologie ist eine in neuerer Zeit so vielseitig erhobene; dafs ein in dieser Richtung unter nommener Versuch keiner besonderen Rechtfertigung bedarf. Die Veranlassung; grade Arkadien zum Objecte dieses Ver suchs zu machen; boten dem Verfasser einmal eine bereits in weiter zurückliegende Zeit hinaufreichende Beschäftigung mit den Sagen dieser Landschaft; dann aber die unläugbaren Vorteile; welche die centrale Lage Arkadiens für Seiten blicke auf die ubrigen peloponnesischen Kulte gewahrt. Verfasser hat sich jedoch bemüht; derartige Seitenblicke nicht zu umfangreichen Excursen anwachsen zu lassen; und solche nur da eingeschoben; wo sie für das Verständnis der zu führenden Untersuchung unerläl'slich schienen.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. CTRL-F is your best friend!!By ThomasI needed this book for my African American history class at Columbus State. It's good for what it's meant to be; and I actually enjoyed some of the material. But a WARNING for the Kindle version; there are no page numbers. There are "Locations"; thousands of them in fact. If you're on page 300 of the real book; you'll be at location #13493 of #18190 in the Kindle Edition. Umm; what?? And if you increase or decrease the font size; the locations decrease and increase along with it; so there isn't even consistency in any of this. So if the professor wants you to go to page 243; good luck.However; the redeeming aspect to this is the CTRL-Find option. So you can follow along with class if you ask for keywords. And it made studying for finals so much easier; changing an otherwise 2-star experience into a solid 4.1 of 2 people found the following review helpful.
