From Library Journal
This reference work defines symbols not only as visual icons (including shapes, color, and geometric designs) but also as biblical, classical, and mythological figures; botanics; minerals; and animals (real and mythical) as they relate to literature, dreams, art, and so forth. The choice of the over 2000 cross-referenced terms included here was necessarily subjective, for almost anything in the universe can be construed as having an emblematic meaning. Prehistorical to modern periods are covered and, although there is a Western emphasis, the author attempts to place symbols in appropriate cultural contexts. This work, which consolidates much arcane information, is valuable for its elucidation of both the esoteric and commonplace. Generally recommended, although there is no need to duplicate if a collection has sufficient works of this nature. A similar title, Carl G. Liungman's Dictionary of Symbols , was chosen as one of LJ 's best reference books of 1991.--Ed.

感覺還是不夠多啊

评分旁徵博引，不講究學術性的話看著還有點意思。瑕疵也不少，比如把中國傳統的“桃木”“桃源”跟cherry硬扯到一起就很難忍受。
评分= = 奇幻小說編寫指南
评分有趣但道聽途說一知半解的部分很多，邏輯蠻弱的，有很多讀不通的地方
