From the author: This collection of essays, edited by Galit Hasan-Rokem and David Shulman, is noteworthy for its state-of-the-art presentation of work on riddles - bringing many perspectives together, from traditional motif-analysis and psychoanalysis to studies of the riddle function in cultures ranging from the classical West to Judaism, classical India, and China. The book is a model of rigorous organization, rare in such wide-ranging collections; major issues that locate the comparative problem itself are uniformly kept in mind.
