Erskine (eds) 2010: The Gods of Ancient Greece: Identities and Transformations, Edinburgh. As the ancient historian Henk Versnel observes, while we may see a strong contrast between Vernant's and Burkert's descriptions of the gods, they both come to the same conclusion, that it is not possible to describe a god in isolation from other gods: 'While for Vernant the coexistence and relationships of gods are the I conditio sine qua non i for an individuation of each god, for Burkert the very same pluralist variety of gods and their transformations constitute the germs of the potentially chaotic nature of Greek polytheism.'[30] Chaos or coexistence? In the studies on specific gods in the series I Gods and Heroes of the Ancient World i (Deacy 2005 -), each begins by asking "why" the particular subject merits a book-long study, then traces key traits of that god before turning to the postclassical afterlife of the god.
