About this book

On cloud-covered Olympus, Jupiter rules above an earth divided among divine powers. Emilie K. Baker begins her retelling of Greek and Roman myths with the creation of humankind and the daring act by which Prometheus brings fire to the world. Published in 1913, the collection moves through stories of gods, lovers and heroes, including Pandora, Cupid and Psyche, Hercules, Perseus and Theseus. A table pairs the Greek and Roman names of the deities.

The tales also connect divine figures with ordinary customs and the natural world. An account of Vesta explains the sacred household hearth, hospitality and the shared fire of a city, while the story of a tree nymph turns a broken promise into a personal loss. Readers looking for narrative introductions to classical mythology will find individual stories alongside explanations of the beliefs and practices attached to them.
