Images of Myths in Classical Antiquity
Susan Woodford

This generously illustrated book explores the ways classical artists portrayed a variety of myths. It explains how formulas were devised for certain stories; how these inventions could be adapted, developed and even transferred to other myths; how one myth could be distinguished from another; what links there were with daily life and historical propaganda; the influence of changing tastes, and problems still outstanding. Examples are drawn from a wide range of media--vases, murals, mosaics, sarcophagi, sculpture--used by the ancient Greeks and Romans.

The Cambridge Illustrated History of Ancient Greece
Edited by Paul Cartledge

The Cambridge Illustrated History of Ancient Greece devotes as much attention to social, economic, sexual and intellectual aspects as to politics and war. It asks what it was like for an ordinary person to partake in ‘the glory that was Greece’. They examine the influences of the environment and economy; the effect of interstate tensions; the implications of sexuality; the experience of workers, soldiers, slaves, peasants and women; and the roles of myth and religion, art and culture, and science and education. This is a cultural history which reveals the far-reaching linguistic, literary, artistic, and political legacy of ancient Greece and seeks justification for Shelley’s claim that we are all Greeks.
