Over 1,700 entries
Covering all aspects of [[mythology]], this Companion includes essays on the world's major mythological [[tradition]]s (Greek, Native American, Indian, Japanese, Sumerian, Egyptian), along with retellings of better-known myths, and entries on mythological types, motifs, and figures (such as the Descent to the Underworld, the Hero, [[Creation]], [[Odysseus]], Spider Woman, and Inanna), and related subjects (such as fairly tales and legends). The Companion locates myth firmly in our lives today by exploring [[language]] [[pattern]]s, [[psychology]], [[religion]], [[politics]], [[art]], and [[gender]] attitudes.
