Discover the origins of the dragon and explore how the mythological creature evolved across cultures and throughout history in Ernest Ingersoll’s study of folklore.
First published in 1928, Dragons and Dragon Lore explores the history of the dragon in mythology and art from around the world. Focusing his study on the dragons of China, Japan, India, Korea, and select European countries, Ernest Ingersoll examines how these diverse societies have portrayed and interpreted the legendary creature over centuries.
Through detailed analysis of literature, folklore, and artistic representations, Dragons and Dragon Lore highlights the fascinating parallels and contrasts between cultures, whether dragons are revered as symbols of wisdom and power or feared as monstrous adversaries.
