About this book

Edith Hamilton's Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes is a classic retelling of the most enduring myths from ancient Greece, Rome, and Norse tradition. With clarity, elegance, and an enduring sense of wonder, Hamilton brings to life the epic adventures, heroic quests, and tragic fates that have shaped Western culture for centuries. The book introduces readers to the great Olympian gods — Zeus, Athena, Apollo, and their kin — as well as legendary mortals such as Hercules, Perseus, and Theseus. It explores the creation of the world, the adventures of Jason and the Argonauts, the tragedy of Oedipus, and the fall of Troy, weaving together stories that have inspired countless works of art and literature. Richly illustrated, this edition captures the beauty and drama of each myth, making it both a literary treasure and a visual feast. Hamilton's storytelling preserves the timeless power of these ancient tales while rendering them accessible to modern readers. Whether recounting the cunning of Odysseus, the doomed love of Orpheus and Eurydice, or the fierce battles of the Norse gods, Hamilton reveals the universal themes of bravery, love, sacrifice, and fate. A must-have for lovers of history, literature, and timeless storytelling, Mythology remains one of the definitive guides to the ancient world's most celebrated legends.
