Description |
Abstract |
Chapter 2 briefly overviews the ancient literary sources that preserve the major mythical sagas about Asclepius, his superhuman powers and his relationship to human doctors. The representations in the mythical narratives that would have made the stories about Asclepius particularly catching and memorable for people of that era are examined. |
