Many of the beings in this book – Cheiron, Pan, Acheloos, the Sirens and others – will be familiar from the narratives of Greek mythology, in which fabulous anatomies abound. However, they have never previously been studied together from a religious perspective, as recipients of cult and as members of the ancient pantheon. This book is the first major treatment of the use of part-animal – mixanthropic – form in the representation and visual imagination of Greek gods and goddesses, and of its significance with regard to divine character and function. What did it mean to depict deities in a form so strongly associated in the ancient imagination with monstrous adversaries? How did iconography, myth and ritual interact in particular sites of worship? Drawing together literary and visual material, this study establishes the themes dominant in the worship of divine mixanthropes, and argues that, so far from being insignificant curiosities, they make possible a greater understanding of the fabric of ancient religious practice, in particular the tense and challenging relationship between divinity and visual representation.

Le cerf vit mille ans. Le sanglier porte ses cornes dans sa bouche. Les papillons sont des fleurs qui volent. L’écureuil est un animal diabolique, paresseux, lubrique, avaricieux. La zoologie médiévale n’est pas la zoologie moderne. Plusieurs notions qui nous sont aujourd’hui familières, sont alors inconnues. Le Moyen Âge est très bavard sur l’animal. A cet égard les bestiaires enluminés, nés pendant le haut Moyen Âge mais dont la vogue atteint son apogée aux XIIe et XIIIe siècles, sont les témoignages les plus riches. L’ouvrage s’ouvre sur une introduction générale, pour ensuite s'intéresser à la composition des bestiaires médiévaux et engager une étude thématique des espèces où sont décrites leurs propriétés physiques et morales, leur dimension symbolique et religieuse, mettant en lumière différentes histoires, croyances ou anecdotes les concernant. Chaque animal est accompagné d’une ou plusieurs miniatures, l’ensemble constituant une iconographie abondante, originale et particulièrement séduisante pour notre œil moderne.
