Mythology can be interesting!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Introduction to Myth was assigned to me the summer before I took an Advanced Placement English Literature class; I did not hold much hope for Stillman, but once I began reading I was amazed. Stillman forces you to look at all myths differently. I realized my conception of Myth was wrong, and I was using the wrong definition for myth. I read the Aeneid shortly after reding Stillman and it made a lot more sense than t had wehn I read it a few years before. Stillman should be read before reading any classical myth because it helps you understand.
