Content:
"This cross-disciplinary study, encompassing literature, the history of art, and music, examines the constitution of the Prometheus myth and the revolution it underwent in 19th-century Europe. It leads to the Symbolist period -- which witnessed the coronation of the Titan as a prism for the total work of art -- and aims to re-establish the importance of Prometheus amongst other major Symbolist figures such as Orpheus."--Page 4 of cover
