Description
The Essential Introduction to Greek and Roman Mythology offers students an immersive reading experience. Myths, monsters, gods, and heroes are explored in their original cultural context, rather than being extracted from it. This new nine-chapter textbook-shaped by many years' worth of student input-traces out a portrait of Greek civilization and, separately, a portrait of Roman civilization.
