Stories about dragons, serpents, and their slayers make up a rich and varied tradition within ancient mythology and folklore. In this sourcebook, Daniel Ogden presents a comprehensive and easily accessible collection of dragon myths from Greek, Roman, and early Christian sources. Some of the dragons featured are well known: the Hydra, slain by Heracles; the Dragon of Colchis, the guardian of the golden fleece overcome by Jason and Medea; and the great sea-serpent from which Perseus rescues Andromeda. But the less well known dragons are often equally enthralling, like the Dragon of Thespiae, which Menestratus slays by feeding himself to it in armor covered in fish-hooks, or the lamias of Libya, who entice young men into their striking-range by wiggling their tails, shaped like beautiful women, at them. The texts are arranged in such a way as to allow readers to witness the continuity of and evolution in dragon stories between the Classical and Christian worlds, and to understand the genesis of saintly dragon-slaying stories of the sort now characteristically associated with St George, whose earliest dragon-fight concludes the volume. All texts, a considerable number of which have not previously been available in English, are offered in new translations and accompanied by lucid commentaries that place the source-passages into their mythical, folkloric, literary, and cultural contexts. A sampling of the ancient iconography of dragons and an appendix on dragon slaying myths from the ancient Near East and India, particularly those with a bearing upon the Greco-Roman material, are also included. This volume promises to be the most authoritative sourcebook on this perennially fascinating and influential body of ancient myth.

Lorsqu'on évoque le mythe de Pygmalion, on pense à l'histoire de ce sculpteur qui, grâce à l'intervention de la déesse de l'Amour, voit sa statue d'ivoire prendre vie. Or, si on reprend dans tous les détails le récit d'Ovide, on s'aperçoit que c'est le sculpteur par son art qui anime sa créature, Vénus ne faisant que parfaire la métamorphose. C'est ce processus de création d'une femme idéale par un artiste opérant sur la base d'une projection de son désir sur le corps féminin qui est étudié ici. Pour cela, ont été mis en perspective plusieurs domaines de création (littérature, cinéma) avec le mythe fondateur afin d'analyser les diverses modalités de la "fabrication" d'une femme et de son image par un homme de l'art ainsi que la relation qui les unit. Cette recherche s'inscrit dans le champ très large d'une anthropologie du corps et de l'image à la croisée de plusieurs disciplines (histoire de l'art, lettres, ethnologie, sociologie). L'analyse du processus créatif à l'oeuvre dans chacun des domaines étudiés au-delà de la singularité de chaque création, révèle une continuité dans la configuration de l'acte créateur que même la rupture introduite par la reproductibilité technique des images ne vient pas remettre en question. Regards d'hommes sur des corps de femmes, regards créateurs de créatures, cet ouvrage met en lumière une facette des rapports entre le féminin et le masculin explorée à travers la problématique de l'image.
