And finally in Legends of Charlemagne, you will explore the epic tales of Charlemagne and his paladins, including the famous story of Roland.
This classic work is not only entertaining, but also educational, providing a window into the beliefs, values, and cultural practices of ancient and medieval civilizations. It is a must-have for anyone interested in literature, history, or mythology.
American author and banker Thomas Bulfinch (1796–1867) is best known for his book Bulfinch's Mythology, a thorough compendium of myths and stories from all across the world.
When Bulfinch's Mythology was originally released in 1855, both America and Europe were becoming more interested in myths and stories from the distant past. As academics and authors looked to rediscover the literary and aesthetic traditions of the past, the middle of the 19th century was a time of cultural and intellectual upheaval. In this regard, Bulfinch's Mythology was a component of a larger initiative to rekindle interest in classical and medieval literature and to delve deeper into its symbolic and spiritual significance.
Bulfinch's Mythology became an immediate hit, and has been a well-liked reference source ever since. The book gained great acclaim in the United States, where it was adopted as a required text in educational institutions. Its accessibility and interesting writing made it a useful tool for literature, history, and mythology students, and it also helped many become familiar with the vast and intricate world of ancient and medieval narrative.
