Kathleen Sears has had a passion for classical mythology
since first reading D’Aulaires’ Book of Greek
Myths. Since then, she has studied the Greek and
Roman myths in their various translations, interpretations,
and adaptions.
• This engaging yet informative read highlights the key characters,
places, and events in popular Greek and Roman myths
• From the Percy Jackson books to the Clash of the Titans adaptations,
classical mythology is found throughout pop culture, which speaks to a
continued interest in the topic
• Psych 101 sold nearly 10,000 copies since being published in
September 2012!
Often academics turn the noteworthy adventures of heroes and gods into
tedious discourse that even Ovid would reject. This easy-to-read guide
cuts out the boring details, and instead, provides readers with a thrilling
lesson in classic mythology.
From the heights of Mt. Olympus to the depths of the Underworld, this
book takes readers on a journey through all the major myths born in ancient
Greece and Rome, such as Achilles’s involvement in the Trojan War;
Pluto’s kidnapping of the beautiful Proserpina; and the slaying of Medusa
by Perseus, the heroic demi-god.
Whether they’re looking to unravel the mystery behind Pandora’s box or
just want to learn more about their favorite gods and goddesses, Mythology
101 is packed with hundreds of entertaining stories and eye-opening
insight that readers can’t get anywhere else!
