Symbolon Press
Books on Comparative Mythology

Symbolon Press publishes books with new perspectives in Comparative Mythology.

The goals of Symbolon Press are threefold. First, to offer fresh perspectives on world mythology based on a comparative approach. Second, to publish important source-texts in reliable translation. And third, to provide access to valuable scholarly studies that have now lapsed out of print, but deserve renewed attention. These three goals are a work in progress. Please check back with us from time to time as our library of titles expands.
