Description
Leicht vergilbt, sonst in sehr gutem Zustand. Mit zeitgen�ssischen Zeitungsausschnitten als Beilage / Slightly yellowed, otherwise in very good condition. With contemporary newspaper clippings as an insert. - This pioneering study interprets the mythology of dualism from Gnosticism to the medieval Cathars to modern nihilism. Couliano shows that, far from being "historically" transmitted, the underlying connection between all dualistic worldviews is a perennial and immensely appealing mindset. ISBN 9780060616151
