Erin and Iran: Cultural Encounters Between the Irish and the Iranians (Chehabi H. E.)(Paperback) - popis produktu

In Erin and Iran, ten essays by North American and European scholars discuss parallel themes in and interactions between Irish and Iranian cultures. In the first section three essays explore common elements in pre-Christian Irish and pre-Islamic Iranian mythologies, common elements that have often been pointed out by scholars of Indo-European mythology but rarely examined in detail.
