About the book
About The Age of Fable (Yesterday's Classics)
A comprehensive collection of Greek and Roman myths, with a sampling from Persia, India, and Scandinavia-stories enjoyable in and of themselves, but also valuable because allusions to them are so common in modern parlance. How the myths are employed by modern writers is demonstrated by the inclusion of one excerpt after another of British poetry in close proximity to the myth that inspired it.
