Bulfinch's Mythology Illustrated
By Thomas Bulfinch.
Description
Although these stories gathered and retold by Thomas Bulfinch, a respected 19th century scholar, were created and first recorded many years ago, they still speak to the contemporary reader. The myths created by the ancient Greeks and Romans, and the tales of the heroes and heroines that emerged during the Age of Chivalry in Europe reflect man's enduring emotions: jealousy and hatred, compassion and devotion. And they deal with the challenged that still confront man - the search for truth, for a deeper understanding of the natural world, and of man's own nature. - from Amzon
