Authority Figures: Metaphors of Mastery from the Iliad to the Apocalypse

Examining texts ranging from the Homeric epics and the Platonic dialogues, to Virgil's "Aeneid" and the Book of Revelation, this book reveals how certain strategic metaphors embedded in the early Western literacy canon have promoted (and still do promote) systems of inequality and social control.
