Tooke's Pantheon of the Heathen Gods and Illustrious Heroes is a comprehensive guide to the gods and heroes of ancient mythology. Written by Andrew Tooke, this book provides a detailed overview of the pantheon of gods worshipped by the ancient Greeks and Romans, as well as their associated myths and legends. The book is divided into two parts: the first section focuses on the gods, while the second section covers the heroes. Each entry includes a description of the deity or hero, their attributes and symbols, and the myths associated with them. Tooke's Pantheon of the Heathen Gods and Illustrious Heroes is a valuable resource for anyone interested in ancient mythology, religion, or history.1851. This volume is revised for a classical course of education and adapted for the use of students of every age and of either sex. Illustrated with engravings from new and original designs. The object of the editor of this book is to present a complete summary of mythology, in a chaste diction, for the study of persons of every age, and of either sex. Without a general knowledge of heathen mythology, the immortal writings of Homer, Virgil, Ovid and others, are almost intelligible and their principal beauties lost.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
