Product details

Product Description
Product Description
Explores the parallels between four stories (the Trojan war, Moses, King Arthur, and Jesus) especially the way their sources relate to their subsequent histories and contemporary relevance.

Synopsis
This book is about ways in which the past has been crafted by storytellers. More specifically, it looks at ways in which stories are presented and understood; and how story-tellers - and their listeners or readers - may wittingly or unwittingly confuse fact with fiction. The author explores the parallels between four stories (the Trojan war, Moses, King Arthur, and Jesus) especially the way their sources relate to their subsequent histories and contemporary relevance. Michael Horan was educated at Collyer's school and has a first class BA (Hons) degree. A retired management consultant, he developed and presented seminars and courses which he likes to think took some steps towards making the workplace fit for the human spirit. Though a Baptist in his earlier years, his label today would probably read 'Quaker?' (if he wore a label at all).
