This revised translation of Fritz Graf's highly acclaimed
introduction to Greek mythology offers a chronological account of
the principal Greek myths that appear in the surviving literary and
artistic sources and concurrently documents the history of
interpretation of Greek mythology from the 17th century to the
present. First surveying the various definitions of myth that have
been advanced, Graf proceeds to examine topics such as the
relationship between Greek myths and epic poetry, the connection
between particular myths and shrines or holy festivals, the use of
myth in Greek song and tragedy, and the uses and interpretations of
myth by philosophers and allegorists.
