Abstract: 'Seward reads Western literary history through what is perhaps its most enduring--and most endearing--symbol. The rose is secular and divine love; Apuleius's ass and the Virgin Mary; beauty, youth, joy and sorrow at the world's transcience...Of value to dreamwork practitioners, literary critics, students of symbolism and the arts, art therapists, and all those cultivating an aesthetic imagination; chapter one includes Freud's, Frazer's, and Jung's interpretations of the significance of the rose...''
