LOST WORLDS introduces to English-speaking readers one of the most
original and engaging historians in Germany today. By exploring the
various systems that made sense out of [early European life]-
astrology, the folklore of the seasons, and Christian interpretations
of birth, confirmation and death - Imhof expands the book into a
speculation on why life in the late twentieth-century can seem
meaningless and difficult.
