Beschreibung

Discover timeless tales of gods and heroes in this bestselling book detailing classic Greek, Roman, and Norse myths and legends-featuring beautiful illustrations throughout. Edith Hamilton's Mythology succeeds like no other book in bringing to life for the modern reader the myths that are the keystone of Western culture-the stories of gods and heroes that have inspired human creativity from antiquity to the present. Follow the drama of the Trojan War and the wanderings of Odysseus. Hear the tales of Jason and the Golden Fleece, Cupid and Psyche, and mighty King Midas. Discover the origins of the names of the constellations. And recognize reference points for countless works for art, literature, and culture inquiry-from Freud's Oedipus complex to Wagner's Ring Cycle of operas to Eugene O'Neill's Mourning Becomes Electra. Both an accessible reference guide for curious readers and a book to simply enjoy, Mythology is a classic not to be missed.
