Cassell Dictionary of Classical Mythology by Jennifer R March
An exploration of classical mythology, and its impact on successive civilizations. The dictionary covers all the principal myths, personalities, places, animals, monsters, heavenly bodies and events of classical mythology. The outline accounts are backed by quotation from the original sources, which seek to bring the narrative to life and show how literary traditions shaped the development of classical mythology. Bibliographies are included throughout.
Dr Jenny March lectures and publishes extensively on Greek tragedy, Homer, and classical mythology, and is attached to Corpus Christi College, Oxford; her lively enthusiasm for Classics has done much to promote support for the subject, both through publicity work for the Classical Association and as Editor of its journal CA News. Jenny March lives in Ropley, Hampshire.
