Περιγραφή

Whoever has travelled knows that all places are, in the last analysis, what each of us projects upon them. This `Mythological Atlas of Greece`, designed for journeys, leads us to mountains, rivers, and landscapes, which in another age -when man was aware that `everything is full of gods`- were treated as divine.
After six years of intensive fieldwork and exhaustive study of the sources, the Spanish Hellenist, Pedro Olalla and ROAD Editions present to travellers-lovers of Greek myths, thw Mythological Atlas of Greece, the first book in which the geography of Greek mythology is marked accurately on detailed maps. By gathering in a single text the wealth of information on the figures of Greek mythology dispersed in the works of many ancient authors, by inventorying fylly the ancient literary sources that give evidence of each place and each myth, by indicating all the ancient sites clearly on the map, with codification of their state of preservation today, this work combines scholarly documentation with impressive photographs, in the spirit of its original character: a book for exploration.
