Description

Many mythological traditions from around the world seek to explain the origins of the earth, human beings, and the forces of nature.

This set examines the stories associated with gods and goddesses: their relationships with each other and with human beings; their faults, foibles, strengths, and special powers.

It offers explanations of how the gods and goddesses gifted humans with life, water, fire, music, and dance.

Nearly 220 essays detail gods and goddesses from around the globe: the Greek and Roman pantheon including Zeus, Neptune, Nike, and Aphrodite; Norse gods including Odin and Loki; Native American deities including Hunahpu and Xbalanque; and Egyptian gods and goddesses like Ra and Osiris.
