Mitología griega y romana

This small mythology handbook brings together the main legends and myths about the gods, heroes, and other fabulous figures of the Greco-Roman tradition. Jean Humbert carried out a systematic review of primary sources to extract from ancient authors —especially poets— all the fables scattered throughout their writings, methodically classifying them to create a complete and well-ordered treatise on mythology.

This is not a work of historical or literary scholarship, but rather an engaging and accessible compendium of mythical tales that invites readers to explore the world of classical Greek and Roman authors without fear of getting lost in the intricate forest of gods, heroes, and nymphs. A systematic dictionary that has become a fundamental reference on Greek and Roman mythology.
