Bibliographic data of the best matching book
The great love stories of the ancient and medieval world have been gathered together in one collection for the first time in The First Love Stories. Author, folklorist, and storyteller Diane Wolkstein has worked for fourteen years preparing these myths for publication. Some have never before appeared in complete form; others have been newly translated from primary sources. Through the alchemy of the storyteller’s art, Wolkstein has rendered these myths accessible and compelling for us today.
The earliest stories in The First Love Stories go back to 2500 B.C. They are joyous, shocking, ribald, humorous, and mysterious testaments to both the passion and the compassion in the human spirit. Each story expresses a different aspect of love: “Isis and Osiris” (Egyptian) embodies love that is stronger than the forces of nature; “Inanna and Dumuzi” (Sumerian) explores the cyclical qualities of love; “Shiva and Sati” (Hindu) portrays the explosion of passion and the taming of the mind; “The Song of Songs” (Hebrew) suggests the sensuous, celebratory, yearning quality of love; “Psyche and Eros” (Greco-Roman) presents the forging of the psyche; “Layla and Majnun” (Arabic-Persian) reveals the path of the soul; and “Tristan and Iseult
