The Gardens of Adonis: Spices in Greek Mythology - Second Edition - Mythos: The Princeton / Bollingen Series in World Mythology 2 Revised edition

Recasts various ideas about the fertility myth of Adonis. This book challenges Sir James Frazer's thesis that the vegetation god Adonis represented the annual cycle of growth and decay in agriculture. It uses the analytic tools of structuralism and shows instead that the festivals of Adonis depict a seductive but impotent and fruitless deity.
