Ronald E. PepinPublication Details
Book1st edFordham University Press2008Description
The Vatican Mythographers offers the first complete English translation of three important sources of knowledge about the survival of classical mythology from the Carolingian era to the High Middle Ages and beyond. The three so-called Vatican Mythographers compiled, analyzed, interpreted, and transmitted a vast collection of myths for use by students, poets, and artists. To date, the works of the Vatican Mythographers have remained inaccessible to scholars and students without a good working knowledge of Latin. (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)Availability
