A Concise Dictionary of Classical Mythology

PIERRE GRIMAL

The Dictionary of Classical Mythology originally published in French by Pierre Grimai in 1951 as the Dictionnaire de la Mythologie Grecque et Romaine established itself quickly as
one of the standard single-volume dictionaries on the subject of the mythology of the classical period. In particular, Grimal’s impressive list of classical sources which he had used in compiling the variant versions of several myths gave the book a validity which has
established it as a lexical work of considerable scholarly value.
