《神话与民族精神──十个文化圈的比较》，是在1986年出版的《神话与民族精神──几个文化圈的比较》的基础上，修订补充完成的，篇幅扩充了将近一倍，凝结着作者1986年以后将近二十年间对有关论题的继续思考。内容涉及埃及、美索不达米亚、印度、希腊－罗马、希伯莱、波斯、北欧、玛雅、日本、纳西等处的神话与民族精神，并与中国的汉语典籍所体现的神话与民族精神，作了深入浅出的比较研究。全书六十余万字。Mythologies and National Ethos──A Comparative Study of the Ten Cultural Zones is a revision and a supplement to its forerunner: Mythology and National Ethos──A Comparative Study of Several Cultural Zones, with the length almost doubled. The book crystalizes the author's continual deliberations over a period of almost 20 years since 1986. The content of the book covers mythologies and national ethos of the Egyptians, the Mesopotamians, the Indians, the Greeks and the Romans, the Jewish, the Persian, the Northern Europeans, the Mayans, the Japanese and the Naxis, and is a comparative study, in penetrating and simple terms, of the above-mentioned mythologies and national ethos and those reflected in the Chinese classics. There are over 60,000 Chinese characters to the book.
