The Greeks And The Irrational is a book written by Eric Robertson Dodds, which explores the relationship between ancient Greek culture and the concept of irrationality. The author argues that the Greeks had a unique and complex understanding of the irrational, which was both feared and revered. Dodds examines various aspects of Greek society, such as religion, philosophy, and literature, to demonstrate how the irrational played a critical role in shaping their worldview. He also discusses the concept of mantic or prophetic knowledge, which was believed to be a means of accessing the irrational realm. The book offers a fascinating insight into the ancient Greek mindset and provides a thought-provoking analysis of the role of irrationality in human thought and behavior.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
