This volume takes the reader through the journey of a myth - where Orpheus becomes an Orpheus-Christus, a courtly knight and the writer of love lyrics.
This is a new edition of Friedman's classic examination of the myth of Orpheus in the late antique and medieval periods. Friedman discusses Christian, Jewish and romantic secular `portraits' of Orpheus, and considers artistic, literary and philosophical sources. In this edition the original text remains unchanged, but the bibliography has been updated.
