Bulfinch's Mythology is a comprehensive collection of myths and legends from various cultures, including Greek, Roman, and Norse mythology. Written by Thomas Bulfinch, the book is divided into three parts: The Age of Fable, The Age of Chivalry, and Legends of Charlemagne. The first section, The Age of Fable, explores the stories of the Greek and Roman gods and goddesses, as well as the myths surrounding heroes like Hercules and Perseus. The second section, The Age of Chivalry, focuses on the legends of King Arthur and his knights, as well as other medieval tales of chivalry and romance. The final section, Legends of Charlemagne, tells the stories of the legendary French king and his warriors, including the famous paladin Roland. Throughout the book, Bulfinch provides detailed retellings of these myths and legends, along with historical context and analysis. Originally published in 1855, Bulfinch's Mythology has become a classic reference for anyone interested in the world of mythology and folklore. It has been praised for its engaging writing style and accessibility, making it a popular choice for both scholars and casual readers alike.Complete version.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
