Time and Myth

<p>Based on the Thomas More Lectures John Dunne delivered at Yale University in 1971 <i>Time and Myth</i> analyzes man's confrontation with the inevitability of death in the cultural personal and religious spheres viewing each as a particular kind of myth shaped by the impact of time. With penetrating simplicity the author poses the timeless dilemma of the human condition and seeks to resolve it through stories of adventures journeys and voyages inspired by man's encounter with death; stories of childhood youth manhood and age; and finally stories of God and of man wrestling with God and the unknown.</p>
