The Most Beautiful Stories of Classical Antiquity: The Myths of Troy (Vol. 2)

A work that offers the reader, in three volumes, a comprehensive collection of Greek and Roman myths in fictional form. The second volume of *The Most Beautiful Stories of Classical Antiquity* contains the "myths of Troy" in chronological order. The characters in the story, immortalized by Homer in the Iliad, gave rise to the major tragedies and expressed the apogee of Greek culture. The work covers the period from the founding of Troy to its defeat, in addition to recovering little-known narratives about the first nine years of the war, the murder of Agamemnon, and the fate of his descendants. Essential references for Western culture, reading this volume offers important contributions to the study of history, literature, and philosophy.
