Myths
aren't just stories; they're keys to understanding our own
selves and our past. The gods and goddesses of ancient mythology
are immortal representations, not only of human nature, but
of human expectation; they were our own needs and desires,
both as individuals and societies, personified. In this audio,
the listener is taken on a journey through the part of our
human history when mythology was used as a guideline for morality
and explaining the unexplainable.
Since
its original publication in 1942, Mythology: Timeless Tales
of Gods and Heroes, has become a widely acclaimed
and equally timeless reference used by millions of readers.
Hamilton pieced together tales of Greek, Roman, and Norse
heroes and their gods in a very easy-to-understand method.
It's an amazing listen that is a MUST for anyone interested
in mythology. Suzanne Toren's articulate narration brings
out the intricate word-craft that makes this book unique in
its presentation if not in its content.
