The Mythical World of Atlantis, from Plato to Disney: Theories of the Lost Empire
Used Book in Good Condition
What do Plato's "concentric circles," Ignatius Donnelly's "mother culture," and Edgar Cayce's "firestones" all have in common? Does the center of gravity really lie at the earth's core? What connection do the "warriors of the clouds" have to current civilization? These and many other questions are answered in The Mythical World of Atlantis - a comprehensive study of the famed lost empire. Elements of theories about Atlantis put forth by philosophers and historians take their place alongside the "theory" revealed in Disney's newest animated feature. An extension of the film's fantasy, the book assumes that the fascinating lost civilization was real and flourished. Though the film's mythology is wholly fabricated, the details conspire to provide the reader with a feeling of authenticity.
