Full description for Mortals and Immortals
'This work will be the definitive Vernant textbooks for students and scholars alike in the English-speaking world. It represents an extraordinarily broad range of Vernant's contributions over the years. Froma Zeitlin is in my view America's foremost expert on the work of Vernant, and her synthetic sense of and for this work is reflected in her introduction and deployment of the articles.' Gregory Nagy, Harvard University
