Edith Hamilton’s Mythology succeeds like no other book in bringing to life for the modern reader the Greek, Roman, and Norse myths that are the keystone of Western culture—the stories of gods and heroes that have inspired human creativity from antiquity to the present. We meet the Greek gods on Olympus and Norse gods in Valhalla.
We follow the drama of the Trojan War and the wanderings of Odysseus. We hear the tales of Jason and the Golden Fleece, Cupid and Psyche, and mighty King Midas. We discover the origins of the names of the constellations. And we recognize reference points for countless works of art, literature, and cultural inquiry—from Freud’s Oedipus complex to Wagner’s Ring Cycle of operas to Eugene O’Neill’s Mourning Becomes Electra. Praised throughout the world for its authority and lucidity, Mythology is Edith Hamilton’s masterpiece—the standard by which all other books on mythology are measured.

Thanks so much!

Interesting that you offer both this and Bulfinch, the authors who introduced me and many generations of other children, and some adults, to Greek and Roman mythology. I trusted these writers till I read Robert Graves’s Greek mythology, which established using chapter and verse that the rosy view Hamilton took of these stories could only be maintained by completely ignoring the vast majority of sources and concentrating on Ovid. That is, her idea of Greek myth is based on a Roman writer. The other sources have so many stories of familial murder, incest, rape, cannibalism and slaughter of guests, that even a small sample of them would falsify her premise that Greek myth is a fine source of uplift.

I thought I’d put up both as a contrast. May professors consider Hamilton romantic junk. There was a request. later removed. for Bulfinch so I figured “why not”.
