This volume brings together 40 chapters penned by specialists that treat various aspects of Greek and Roman mythographical writings—works that organize or interpret myths—and their relationship to other aspects of ancient intellectual and cultural development. An introduction by the editors provides a survey of mythography in Greece and Rome, an overview of the contents of the book, and a discussion of existing and emerging trends in interpretation of mythography. Five sections contain chapters that analyze the development of mythography, individual mythographers and works, intersections with other elements of ancient culture, mythography and the visual arts, and the continuation and reception of mythography by Christian writers in later antiquity, the medieval period, and the Renaissance. Each chapter seeks both to give an up-to-date survey of the status of research and to outline areas for innovative future research. Altogether, these contributions make up the first comprehensive treatment of the phenomenon of Greek and Roman mythography.
