Description

In this philosophy classic, which was once first published in 1951, E. R. Dodds takes at the traditional view of Greek culture as a triumph of rationalism. The use of the analytical tools of up to date anthropology and psychology, Dodds asks, “Why must we attribute to the traditional Greeks an immunity from ‘primitive’ modes of thought which we don’t in finding in any society open to our direct statement?” Praised by reviewers as “an event in up to date Greek scholarship” and “a book which it will be difficult to over-praise,” The Greeks and the Irrational was Volume 25 of the Sather Classical Lectures series.
