A Concise Dictionary of Classical Mythology by Pierre Grimal

A Concise Dictionary of Classical Mythology by Pierre Grimal

"The Concise Dictionary of Classical Mythology" is a distillation into brief form of the single source dictionary of ancient Greek and Roman myths and legends. In keeping with Grimal's original dictionary, first published in 1951 in France the concise version covers virtually all major characters, and eight genaeological tables present the principal complex relationships between gods and men. The entries concentrate on principal versions of each legend, and only the most significant variations are covered, in order to focus on the common core of classical literature. Brief definitions are cross referenced to short accounts of the main legends.

Pierre Grimal, born in Paris in 1912, was Professor at the Facult� des Lettres at the Sorbonne until 1982 and is the author of many works of classical scholarship.
