Description

The Critical Survey of Mythology and Folklore series offers analytical articles and plot summaries of the major myths, fairy tales, and other traditional literature for studies in advanced high school and undergraduate classrooms.

The Critical Survey of Mythology and Folklore presents articles on myths, folktales, legends, and other traditional literature.

Drawing upon the most widely-read literature, this volume covers a diverse range of authors, countries, and cultures.

Articles begin with a summary that offers readers the major actions and characters in the tale followed by an analysis of the important cultural and social interpretations of the author and myth.

Myths in the volume are organised by regions of the world and cultures, such as Oceania, South East Asia, and Meso-America.

In addition, twelve maps listing ancient cultures and charts on mythological figures will provide a broad overview of major deities in world mythology.

Students, educators, and general readers will discover a broad critical and cultural survey that engages the contemporary imagination in the importance of myth, fairy tale, and other traditional literature.
