Cosmos and History: The Myth of the Eternal Return

Cosmos and History: The Myth of the Eternal Return

$15.00

Eliade, Mircea. Harper Torchbooks, 1959. Softbound. Translated by Willard R. Trask. The study that exerted powerful influence on writers ranging from Cocteau (L'Éternel retour) to Milan Kundera (The Unbearable Lightness of Being), this Torchbooks edition is notable for being released under Eliade's preferred title. A handsome trade paperback featuring matte wraps with chicly chiseled outline capitals and three-color design by Charles Gottlieb, as well as a peculiar instance of a self-blurb—'the most significant of my books,' Eliade writes—to the back cover.

Tight, uncreased spine has a very subtle lean. Clean, unmarked interior. Some moderate edge-wear and light rubbing/soiling to the covers. 176 pp. Comparative Religion.
