Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Setting itself apart from typical anthologies in classical mythology, Gods, Heroes, and Monsters: A Sourcebook of Greek, Roman, and Near Eastern Myths in Translation presents essential Greek and Roman sourcesincluding work from Homer, Hesiod, Virgil, and Ovidalongside analogous narratives from the ancient Near EastMesopotamia, Egypt, the Hittite kingdom, Ugarit, Phoenicia, and the Hebrew Bible. Some of the sources appear here in English translations for the first time.This collection stresses cultural continuities and comparisons, showing how Greek and Roman myths did not emerge in a vacuum but rather evolved from and interacted with their counterparts in the ancient Near East. Reinforcing this more inclusive definition of 'classical,' it is organized thematically, which allows readers to examine each category of myth in a comparative and crosscultural light. For example, 'Part III: Epic Struggles: Gods, Heroes, and Monsters' provides sources that feature Greek heroes like Heracles, Apollo, Achilles, and Hector along with the Epic of Gilgamesh and other ancient Near Eastern selections that focus on the hero.Offering a uniquely expansive view of the ancient Mediterranean world, Gods, Heroes, and Monsters shows how the literature, inhabitants, and intellectual traditions of Greece and Rome and the ancient Near East were inextricably intertwined. The book is enhanced by a vibrant, fullcolor, 16pg. photo insert, and many new translations by editor Carolina LpezRuiz and others. Ideal for undergraduate courses in Classical Mythology, it is also captivating reading for the general public.
