Roger Bartra analyzes the iconographic representations and literary expressions of this myth, and perfectly articulates an idea that runs through the history of our civilization from start to finish and configures the identity of the European savage: all cultural and political progress in the West, all milestones in European society, has had as its counterpoint a savage who dwells on the frontiers of civility. This book is a daring journey through the world of strange beings that dwell in the forest of our imagination.
