Revisiting Delphi speaks to all admirers of Delphi and its famous
prophecies, be they experts on ancient Greek religion, students of
the ancient world, or just lovers of a good story. It invites
readers to revisit the famous Oracle of Apollo at Delphi, along
with Herodotus, Euripides, Socrates, Pausanias and Athenaeus,
offering the first comparative and extended enquiry into the way
these and other authors force us to move the link between religion
and narrative centre stage. Their accounts of Delphi and its
prophecies reflect a world in which the gods frequently remain
baffling and elusive despite every human effort to make sense of
the signs they give.
