Classical Mythology in Context
provides a contextualized treatment of classical myth, combining ancient sources, comparative perspectives, theoretical approaches, and artistic interpretations. It encourages students to directly encounter and explore ancient myths and to understand them in broader interpretative contexts. It features a modular structure that coincides with the four main components of a classical mythology course: history, theory, comparison, and reception.
