The Encyclopedia of Mythology : Norse - Classical - Celtic - 2007 #smrgSAHAF
20.79
Over 500 alphabetical entries describing the central mythical figures of each culture (classical, Celtic, and Norse) and over 550 illustrations spanning fifteen centuries of fine art from the ancient world to the present day, including both classic masterpieces and commissioned artwork.
I N THIS IMPORTANT NEW VOLUME, the ancient mythologies are brought to life in the most comprehensive coverage yet produced. An outstanding 550 images, including superb new illustrations of the classic stories, make this the most evocative and detailed guide to the fabulous myths and legends of the ancient world.
Three powerful and compelling cultures are featured: the Classical mythology of ancient Greece and Rome; the fairytale myths of the Celtic world; and, from Northern Europe, tales of Germanic gods, Nordic warriors and fearsome giants. The essential structure of the Encyclopedia, designed for maximum accessibility and ease of use, is the alphabetical A-Z, detailing characters, locations and sites of interest, significant events, stories and symbols. Together these entries create a clear and comprehensive Who's Who, with copious cross references throughout.
Arthur Cotterell, a world expert on mythology, describes the central mythical figures and their exploits with wit and authority, and retells the ancient legends in a way that allows the myths to stand first and foremost as spell-binding tales, as well as being intriguing accounts of past ages.
Throughout, the ancient tales are brought to life by a wealth of imagery - spanning fifteen centuries of fine art from the ancient world and including inspired specially-commissioned illustrations. Pictorial features also focus on important and recurring mythological themes, such as Oracles and Prophecies, Magic and Enchantment, Voyagers, Heroes, Giants, Sorcery and Spells, and others.
Classical Mythology: The myths of the Classical world have inspired generations of painters and poets. All the unforgettable characters are here: silver-tongued Odysseus; peerless Achilles and mighty Hercules; the warring twins, Romulus and Remus; Jason and the Argonauts, and Bellerophon who tamed the winged horse, Pegasus.
Celtic Mythology: Equally haunting are the fairytale myths of the Celtic world. The fearless but fated heroes, doomed lovers, mystical Druids and sparkling otherworlds of Celtic myth have continued to delight new audiences for centuries.
Nordic Mythology: From the misty North come tales of stormy Nordic gods, of warrior kings, stolen treasure and cursed rings. The fjords and hills swarm with nature sprites, with surly giants, and far-sighted elves who leave footprints in the wet grass.
The Encyclopedia of Mythology is the most complete and lavish guide to the myths of the three most significant ancient cultures. Universal in theme and timeless in appeal, it is destined to become the classic reference on the subject.
