Title: Great References for Classical & other Western Art
Review: Excellent explanations of myths, symbols, biblical characters & stories, and classical dieties.Will help (undergraduate) college or high school level researchers immensely. Great for art history students. Actually, since much of the entries are names and stories (Elisha, Pegasus, Granida and Daifilo, bearing the body of Christ), this is perfectly useful to anyone studying and writing about myths, western religion, the Renaissance, or even classical drama.Little idiosyncrasies like a listing for "garden" but not for "Eden" tend to be a little frustrating, but one generally can find what one is looking for.Nothing in here about Eastern or Oriental art except a handful of Old Testament references that could possibly apply to Islamic culture. This is really a concentration on the roots of Western art and culture.
