Time and Myth: A Meditation on Storytelling as an Exploration of Life and Death

book
posted on 2021-01-29, 00:00 authored by John S. Dunne
Based on the Thomas More Lectures John Dunne delivered at Yale University in 1971, _Time and Myth_ analyzes man's confrontation with the inevitability of death in the cultural, personal, and religious spheres, viewing each as a particular kind of myth shaped by the impact of time. With penetrating simplicity the author poses the timeless dilemma of the human condition and seeks to resolve it through stories of adventures, journeys, and voyages inspired by man's encounter with death; stories of childhood, youth, manhood, and age; and, finally, stories of God and of man wrestling with God and the unknown.
