Myths and Symbols in Indian Culture

This edition includes the fundamental work of the famous German oriental scholar and Indologist Heinrich Zimmer (1890-1943), a colleague of C.G. Jung and R. Wilhelm, and one of the teachers of J. Campbell. Relying on significant material from his own research, Zimmer traces the connection and mutual influence of ancient Indian philosophy, mythology, religious history, and the symbolism of Indian visual art, recreating a holistic picture of Indian culture.
The book is published in Russian for the first time and will be useful for philosophers, cultural scholars, religious studies experts, as well as for anyone interested in Indian culture, art history, and the history of human thought.
