The book explores the enduring legacy of the Hercules choice motif in Western art, highlighting its cultural significance and theoretical implications. It contrasts popular cultural studies with Ernst Cassirer's philosophy of culture, advocating for a deeper understanding of symbolic forms. The collection of papers examines diverse topics, including language, myth, and religion, all within a comparative framework, showcasing the historical and theoretical breadth of Cassirer's ideas. This approach offers a more enriching perspective on cultural continuity and interpretation.
