Recenzii
"A delight . . . original, well-written, and thoughtfully organized." David L. Haberman, author of Journey Through the Twelve Forests
"[D]oes something truly wonderful: it shows that the clothes that gods wear convey critical information which is hidden to those who 'see through' the clothes and so miss key significations. . . . The wonderful blend of methods and insights from art history, ethnography, and history of religions makes the book compelling." Lindsey Harlan, Connecticut College
