Building on the best-selling tradition of previous editions, Classical Mythology, Eleventh Edition, is the most comprehensive survey of classical mythology available--and the first full-color textbook of its kind. Featuring the authors' clear and extensive translations of original sources, it brings to life the myths and legends of Greece and Rome in a lucid and engaging style. The text contains a wide variety of faithfully translated passages from Greek and Latin sources, including Homer, Hesiod, all the Homeric Hymns, Pindar, Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Herodotus, Plato, Lucian, Lucretius, Vergil, Ovid, and Seneca.

Acclaimed authors Mark P.O. Morford, Robert J. Lenardon, and Michael Sham incorporate a dynamic combination of poetic narratives and enlightening commentary to make the myths come alive for students. Offering historical and cultural background, they also examine the enduring survival of classical mythology and its influence in the fields of art, literature, music, dance, and film.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Classical Mythology, Eleventh Edition, features a thoughtful and engaging presentation of material, good use of color and graphics, and an excellent layout. The range and coverage of topics is very thorough; most of what a mythology class or instructor might look for is here in some form."--Glen Robert Gill, Montclair State University

"This book offers broad, rich, yet detailed coverage and is superior to all competitors I know. This has been my main text (with a few interruptions) for considerably more than twenty years. It is reliable and appeals to students."--Zoja Pavlovskis-Petit, Binghamton University

"I particularly like the glossary, which explains how concepts or names that originate with Greek myth have become part of the language. This is great for building vocabulary and enhancing student literacy. The phonetic pronunciations provided in one index are very helpful, as is the audio element on the website, which says words aloud so that students (and instructors) can hear how they are pronounced."--Alice Goode-Elman, Suffolk Community College

Book Description

A comprehensive, classic text that brings to life the myths and legends of Greece and Rome for classical mythology--now with new audio and art resources

I had very little knowledge of anything related to mythology and I also needed this book for a classics class but after reading the book, I am very surprised to say that it was a very interesting read. I actually enjoyed it very much.

1.0 out of 5 stars Restocking Fee for a Used Book
Reviewed in the United States on August 25, 2020
Verified Purchase
The book was in great shape as described. No issues there. The class was cancelled so I requested a return. The seller took two days to approve the return (2 days past the 30 day policy). Okay, no issue there either. The return was approved, but it came with a price.

1.- I had to pay (out of pocket, $12.32 to ship the book back.

And,
2.- "You may be charged a restocking fee." What?

It is not an electronic device. It is not a 60" television. It was not printed upon demand.

I do not agree. A used book (in very good shape) has a stocking fee?

Everything was good with this product except the bottom edge of the book looked like someone dropped it. Not a super big deal, probably happened in transit.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty solid textbook
Reviewed in Canada on January 18, 2019

The only thing I didn’t really like about the book is the complex language. I’m using this for an introductory Greek mythology class and the text book isn’t overly helpful in understanding. The online resource is helpful but if I have a solid book in hand then I like to be able to see definitions along the side where complex words are rather than in a glossary in the back.
