| Description: |
Symbols are seen as an international language, but that language is far from universal. 1000 Symbols offers groupings of related symbols, each with a definition of its history and meanings. |
| Synopsis: |
Symbols are often seen as constituting an international language and to some extent they do, but that language is far from universal--context means everything in this complicated but engrossing form of communication. Take, for example, a cross, a crane, or a swastika: each one has a different and distinct significance and meaning for a Buddhist, an art historian, or a student of the occult. 1000 Symbols resolves the problem by offering groupings of related symbols, every one with a neat definition of its history and its cross-cultural meanings. |
