Description:
"This volume deals with the figure of Attis. The work aims to reconsider the mythical and cultic information about this character, trying to provide proof of the processes of 'construction' and 'reconstruction' that have contributed to the moulding of the different forms of Attis that developed as a result of various demands within different religious traditions."--BOOK JACKET.
