520 1 "Prometheus the god stole fire from heaven and bestowed it
on humans. In punishment, Zeus chained him to a rock,
where an eagle clawed unceasingly at his liver, until
Herakles freed him. For the Greeks, the myth of
Prometheus's release reflected a primordial law of
existence and the fate of humankind. Carl Kerenyi examines
the story of Prometheus and the very process of mythmaking
as a reflection of the archetypal function and seeks to
discover how this primitive tale was invested with a
universal fatality, first in the Greek imagination, and
then in the Western tradition of Romantic poetry. Kerenyi
traces the evolving myth from Hesiod and Aeschylus, and in
its epic treatment by Goethe and Shelly; he moves on to
consider the myth from the perspective of Jungian
psychology, as the archetype of human daring signifying
the transformation of suffering into the mystery of the
sacrifice."--Jacket.
