Book Synopsis The Sea in the Greek Imagination by : Marie-Claire Beaulieu
Book excerpt: In The Sea in the Greek Imagination, Marie-Claire Beaulieu unifies the multifarious representations of the sea and sea-crossing in Greek myth and imagery by positing the sea as a cosmological boundary between the worlds of the living, the dead, and the gods, or between reality and imagination.
