Legends and Myths of Ancient Greece

More than a hundred years ago, Kuhn's book "What the Greeks and Romans told about their gods and heroes" was published. In the middle of the XX century, the text was somewhat shortened and released under a different title - "Legends and Myths of Ancient Greece". And it was this book that became one of the most famous popular scientific expositions of Greek mythology, withstood hundreds of reprints, including in foreign languages, and inspired more than one generation of scholars (for example, M. L. Gasparov). The fascinating retelling of ancient primary sources - poems by Hesiod, Ovid, Homer - makes the distant world of the ancient Greeks closer and clearer. And let there be no winged horses, evil gorgons and immortal gods on Olympus, but the Greek myths reflect human life as it has always been, and the unexplained and unexplored, to which we aspire and where we want to return.
