Greek Myths in the Suda (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798734344132)

The Suda, compiled around the X century of our era and formerly attributed to one mysterious Suidas, can broadly be defined as a Byzantine Encyclopedia of the Ancient Mediterranean World, which contains over 31000 entries, making it a difficult read for even the most passionate researchers. To avoid this issue, Greek Myths in the Suda allows readers to gain a more direct access to the mythological information preserved in this famous literary source from the Byzantine Empire.
This book summarizes all the Suda's content related to Greek and Roman Mythology, presenting which entries refer to each mythological figure, and then briefly synthesizing the information related to each of them, which would otherwise be spread all over the original work.
