It is a visual dictionary with 1000 entries and more than 600 fine-art images. It covers every aspect of Classical, Celtic and Norse mythology, folklore and legend, bringing the past to life. It is a lively and informed narrative by one of the world's leading authorities on the subject. Special spreads compare and contrast key mythological and archetypal themes in the different cultures. Hundreds of beautiful images highlight every aspect of these heroic characters and their tales, from the Olympian Gods to the Nordic warriors and nature gods of the Celts. This encyclopedia of mythology brings together the three outstanding traditions of Europe: the Classical legends of ancient Greece and Rome; the fairytale myths of the Celtic world; and from Northern Europe, tales of Germanic gods, Nordic warriors and giants. They form the core of European mythological thought, revealing the power of love in Helen of Troy, the mystery of death in the tale of King Arthur and the challenge of the unknown in the voyages of Brendan the Navigator. Pictorial features focus on recurring mythological themes, such as Oracles, Magic, Voyages, Heroes, and Spells, making this book universal in theme and timeless in appeal. The A-Z structure of the book makes it easy to find hundreds of characters, significant events, locations and sites of interest, stories and symbols. Review: Very nice book! - Nice book with of lots of interesting alphabetically listed information. Bought it for my son (11) who is mythology mad, but in my opinion this book is more for adults as the level of the explanatory is quite advanced. Review: A great snapshot of mythology - This isn't an indepth book on mythology, more of a reference book than anything else. It's a great intro in the subject however. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 582,656 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 416 in Mythology Encyclopaedias 601 in Religious Studies Encyclopaedias 2,084 in Folklore (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 240 Reviews | ## Images ![The Illustrated A-Z of Classic Mythology: The Legends of Ancient Greece, Rome, and the Norse and Celtic Worlds - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/8192nPHxC1L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nice book! *by E***3 on 14 February 2024* Nice book with of lots of interesting alphabetically listed information. Bought it for my son (11) who is mythology mad, but in my opinion this book is more for adults as the level of the explanatory is quite advanced. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great snapshot of mythology *by K***M on 4 August 2023* This isn't an indepth book on mythology, more of a reference book than anything else. It's a great intro in the subject however. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A reference book, not a story book. *by O***S on 6 January 2020* Very much a reference book rather than something you’d read from start to finish. If you’re a bit of a pop historian like me, for whom copious amounts of detail become boring very quickly, then you’d be better off buying a book which tells the stories rather than lists the characters etc. It’s probably easier to understand their significance if they’re in the context of a story. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Illustrated A-Z Of Classic Mythology: The Legends Of Ancient Greece, Rome And The Norse And Celtic Worlds; A Visual Dictionary With 1000 Entries And More Than 600 Fine Art Images - Mythology (75th Anniversary Illustrated Edition): Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes - Classical Mythology A to Z: An Encyclopedia of Gods & Goddesses, Heroes & Heroines, Nymphs, Spirits, Monsters, and Places --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/49333397-the-illustrated-a-z-of-classic-mythology-the-legends-ancient](https://www.desertcart.us/products/49333397-the-illustrated-a-z-of-classic-mythology-the-legends-ancient) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-11*
