The main text is supplemented by an important introductory essay providing overviews of mythology, religious pluralism in the ancient world, and the reception of myths from antiquity to the present. In addition to a helpful thematic index and extensive crossreferences, the text is further supported by three maps and six genealogies.Backed by the authority and scholarly rigor of the renowned Oxford Classical Dictionary, The Oxford Dictionary of Classical Myth and Religion is a valuable AZ reference and is as ideal a tool for students and teachers of ancient history as it is for all classics lovers.
