Orpheus and Greek Religion: A Study of the Orphic Movement - Bollingen Series Revised edition
William Keith Guthrie
The tales told of Orpheus are legion. He is said to have been an Argonaut - and to have saved Jason's life. Did Orpheus, in fact, exist? His influence on Greek thought is undeniable, but his disciples left little of substance behind them. This work attempts to uncover and define Orphism by following its circuitous path through ancient history.
