An entrancing new telling of ancient Greek myths"e;This book is a triumph! . . . [A] magnificent retelling of the Greek myths."e;-Alexander McCall Smith, author of the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency series"e;Move over, Edith Hamilton! Sarah Iles Johnston has hit the magical refresh button on Greek myths."e;-Maria Tatar, author of The Heroine with 1001 FacesGripping tales that abound with fantastic characters and astonishing twists and turns, Greek myths confront what it means to be mortal in a world of powerful forces beyond human control. Little wonder that they continue to fascinate readers thousands of years after they were first told. Gods and Mortals is a major new telling of ancient Greek myths by one of the world's preeminent experts. In a fresh, vibrant, and compelling style that draws readers into the lives of the characters, Sarah Iles Johnston offers new narrations of all the best-known tales as well as others that are seldom told, taking readers on an enthralling journey from the origin of the cosmos to the aftermath of the Trojan War.Some of the mortals in these stories are cursed by the gods, while luckier ones are blessed with resourcefulness and resilience. Gods transform themselves into animals, humans, and shimmering gold to visit the earth in disguise-where they sometimes transform offending mortals into new forms, too: a wolf, a spider, a craggy rock. Other mortals-both women and men-use their wits and strength to conquer the monsters created by the gods-gorgons, dragons, harpies, fire-breathing bulls.Featuring captivating original illustrations by Tristan Johnston, Gods and Mortals highlights the rich connections between the different characters and stories, draws attention to the often-overlooked perspectives of female characters, and stays true both to the tales and to the world in which ancient people lived. The result is an engaging and entertaining new take on the Greek myths.
" La vie d'Edgar Allan Poe n'est plus à raconter: ses derniers traducteurs français, s'inspirant des travaux définitifs de son nouvel éditeur J.H. Ingram, l'ont éloquemment vengé des calomnies trop facilement acceptées sur la foi de son ami et exécuteur testamentaire, Rufus Griswold. En dépit de ses mensonges, Edgar Poe reste pour nous et restera pour la postérité, de plus en plus admiratrice de son génie, ce que l'a si bien défini notre Baudelaire: Ce n'est pas par ses miracles matériels, qui pourtant ont fait sa renommée, qu'il lui sera donné de conquérir l'admiration des gens qui pensent, c'est par son amour du Beau, par sa connaissance des conditions harmoniques de la beauté, par sa poésie profonde et plaintive, ouvragée néanmoins, transparente et correcte comme un bijou de cristal, - par son admirable style, pur et bizarre, - serré comme les mailles d'une armure, - complaisant et minutieux, - et dont la plus légère intention sert à pousser doucement le lecteur vers un but voulu, - et enfin surtout par ce génie tout spécial, par ce tempérament unique, qui lui a permis de peindre et d'expliquer d'une manière impeccable, saisissante, terrible, l'exception dans l'ordre moral. - Diderot, pour prendre un exemple entre cent, est un auteur sanguin; Poe est l'écrivain des nerfs, et même de quelque chose de plus - et le meilleur que je connaisse. Ajoutons que ce fut une bonne fortune exceptionnelle pour Edgar Poe de rencontrer un traducteur tel que Baudelaire, si bien fait par les tendances de son propre esprit pour comprendre son génie, et le rendre dans un style qui a toutes les qualités de son modèle. "
Möbius Media explores the interplay of popular and traditional cultures, reminding readers that expressive cultural forms are never mutually exclusive but exist in a state of creative tension and interconnection, merging and (re)defining one another. With this insightful volume, editors Jeffrey Tolbert and Michael Dylan Foster build on their earlier work, The Folkloresque, by considering how folklore is understood and mobilized within a variety of popular discourses and commercial marketplaces. The collection challenges readers to consider the stakes of labeling something as folklore or folk. It demonstrates the rhetorical and political potency of ideas such as traditionality, heritage, and community in storytelling venues (including films, games, and even podcasts), in the construction and policing of genres, and in the selling of commodities. By interrogating popular media and expressions that make use of ideas such as folklore, tradition, authenticity, and heritage, Möbius Media further develops the theoretical applicability of the folkloresque concept and encourages productive interdisciplinary dialogue. Through the lens of the folkloresque, scholars can better see the hidden ideologies that inform the marketplace and influence contemporary modes of communication. This interdisciplinary work will appeal to scholars and students of cultural studies, media studies, popular culture, literature, anthropology, and related areas.
In the vast tapestry of human imagination, mythology, folklore, and legends intertwine to weave captivating tales that transcend time and culture. From the haunting odes and hymns echoing the deeds of gods and heroes to the enchanting melodies of short stories brimming with magic and wonder, the realm of mythos beckons. Medusa's petrifying gaze, the chilling howl of werewolves under the light of the full moon, and the majestic flight of Pegasus across the heavens are just glimpses into this rich tapestry. Journeying through the sagas of Vikings, where Valhalla awaits the brave and Valkyries guide the fallen, or the heroic feats of Hercules as he grapples with the Nemean Lion and battles the monstrous Hydra, one finds a universe teeming with adventure and marvel. From the lofty peaks of Mount Olympus, where Zeus reigns supreme alongside Hera and Athena, to the depths of Hades ruled by stern Pluto, the pantheon of gods and goddesses commands awe and reverence. Yet, beyond the realms of Greek, Norse, Celtic, and Egyptian mythology, whispers of ancient Mesopotamian epics linger, where the likes of Inanna, Shamash, and Marduk stride alongside towering ziggurats. Amidst the shimmering sands of Egypt, the divine beauty of Isis mingles with the radiant Ra and the fierce Set, while in the depths of the underworld, Osiris presides over the realm of the dead, watched over by Anubis. Across the thunderous skies of Norse mythology, Thor wields his mighty hammer Mjolnir against the cunning schemes of Loki, while Odin, the Allfather, gazes upon the world from his throne in Asgard. Amidst this pantheon of gods and goddesses, heroes and heroines arise, facing daunting challenges and embarking on epic quests, whether it be the valiant Knights pursuing dragons and rescuing maidens or the seekers of ancient treasure braving the haunted depths where ghosts and specters dwell. In every corner of the world, from the dawn of civilization to the present day, the timeless allure of mythological beasts, epic tales, and the enduring power of ancient myths continue to captivate and inspire.

From the sirens of Homer's Odyssey to Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid and the film Splash, myths, stories, and legends of half-human, half-fish creatures abound.

In Merpeople: A Human History, Vaughn Scribner traces the long history of mermaids and mermen, taking in a wide variety of sources and using 117 striking images.

Inspired by folklore, television, fairy tales, social media, novels, and films, Just Wonder addresses crucial themes in social and ecological justice efforts. Moving into the mid-twenty-first century, wonder--as a potentially critical sociocultural, ecological, and individual stance--will play a significant role in reconceptualizing the present to imagine a different and better world. These essays examine fairy tales and other traditional forms of the fantastic and the real to offer alternative expressions of justice relevant to gender, sex, sexuality, environment, Indigeneity, class, ability, race, decolonizing, and human and nonhuman relations. By analyzing fairy tales and wonder texts from various media through an intersectional feminist lens, Pauline Greenhill and Jennifer Orme consider how wonder genres and forms blend with diverse conceptions of seeking and enacting justice. International collaborators--both established and emerging scholars who self-identify with different subjectivities, locations, and generations and come from an impressive range of inter/disciplines--engage with contemporary and historical texts from various languages and cultural contexts, including interventions, counterparts, and comparisons to the fairy tale. Just Wonder offers a critical look at how creative wondering can expand the ability to resist modes of oppression while fostering equity, as well as encourage curiosity and imagination. In a world that can be overwhelming and precarious, this book presents scholarly, artistic, personal, and collective-action interventions to identify and respond to injustice while centering wonder and, thus, imagination, questioning, and hope. Just Wonder will appeal to fairy-tale scholars; folklorists; students and scholars of film, media studies, and cultural studies; as well as a general audience.

The ancient Greek epic poem "The Fall of Troy" is credited to Quintus Smyrnaeus, who is thought to have lived in the fourth century AD. The poem, which is a continuation of Homer's "Iliad" and "Odyssey," tells the story of what happens after Hector dies and Troy falls during the Trojan War. The story contains a number of incidents, such as the Greeks' creation of the wooden horse, the horse's penetration of Troy, and the city's subsequent sacking. Quintus Smyrnaeus adds new information and viewpoints while elaborating on the people and events featured in Homer's poems. The poem also has tragic, romantic, and divine intervention themes. "The Fall of Troy" is noteworthy for its attempt to close the gap between later, more contemporary writing and the Homeric epics. The poem connects the classical Greek epics with the Roman and mediaeval traditions, reflecting a continuance of the epic tradition. ¿The Fall of Troy" is an important part of the Trojan War story and has influenced succeeding literary traditions, even though it is not as well-known as Homer's writings.

A collection of fairy tales from writer Andrew Lang. These fairy tales have delighted generations of readers around the world. The Langs' Fairy Books are a series of 25 collections of true and fictional stories for children published between 1889 and 1913 by Andrew Lang and his wife, Leonora Blanche Alleyne. The best-known books of the series are the 12 collections of fairy tales also known as Andrew Lang's "Coloured" Fairy Books or Andrew Lang's Fairy Books of Many Colors. In all, the volumes feature 798 stories, besides the 153 poems in The Blue Poetry Book.Leonora Blanche Alleyne (1851-1933) was an English author, editor, and translator. Known to her family and friends as Nora, she assumed editorial control of the series in the 1890s, while her husband, Andrew Lang (1844-1912), a Scots poet, novelist, and literary critic, edited the series and wrote prefaces for its entire run. According to Anita Silvey, "The irony of Lang's life and work is that although he wrote for a profession-literary criticism; fiction; poems; books and articles on anthropology, mythology, history, and travel ... he is best recognized for the works he did not write." The authorship and translation of the Coloured Fairy Books are often and incorrectly attributed to Andrew Lang alone. Nora is not named on the front cover or spines of any of the Coloured Fairy Books, which all tout Andrew as their editor. However, as Andrew acknowledges in a preface to The Lilac Fairy Book (1910), "The fairy books have been almost wholly the work of Mrs. Lang, who has translated and adapted them from the French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Spanish, Catalan, and other languages."
