Historia
The Viking Spirit is an introduction to Norse mythology like no other. As you’d expect from Daniel McCoy, the creator of the endearingly popular website "Norse Mythology for Smart People", it’s written to scholarly standards, but in a simple, clear, and entertaining style that’s easy to understand and a pleasure to listen to. It includes gripping retellings of no less than 34 epic Norse myths - more than any other book in the field - while also providing an equally comprehensive overview of the fascinating viking religion of which Norse mythology was a part.

Historia
Civilization was born 8,000 years ago, between the floodplains of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, when migrants from the surrounding mountains and deserts began to create increasingly sophisticated urban societies. In the cities that they built, half of human history took place. In Babylon, Paul Kriwaczek tells the story of Mesopotamia from the earliest settlements seven thousand years ago to the eclipse of Babylon in the sixth century BCE. Bringing the people of this land to life in vibrant detail, the author chronicles the rise and fall of power during this period.

Who are the Goddess and the God, and where did they come from? Why do they have different names in different Wiccan traditions, and how do you begin to work with them in your personal practice? Magical Deities, by best-selling author Lisa Chamberlain, answers these questions and more. Going beyond the brief introduction to the God and Goddess found in many beginner guides to Wicca, Lisa covers the origins of the Wiccan deities as well as the difference between traditional duotheism and more eclectic polytheistic practices, both of which are found in some forms of modern Wicca.

Historia
Biblical scholars, Egyptologists, archaeologists, historians, literary scholars, anthropologists, and filmmakers are drawn to the mystery of the exodus. Unable to find physical evidence until now, many archaeologists and scholars claim this mass migration is just a story, not history. Others oppose this conclusion, defending the biblical account.

Historia
The Vikings maintain their grip on our imagination, but their image is too often distorted by medieval and modern myth. It is true that they pillaged, looted, and enslaved. But they also settled peacefully and developed a vast trading network. They traveled far from their homelands in swift and sturdy ships, not only to raid, but also to explore. Despite their fearsome reputation, the Vikings didn’t wear horned helmets, and even the infamous berserkers were far from invincible.

In 1519, the Spanish conquistador Hernando Cortés first met Montezuma, the Aztec emperor, at the entrance to the capital city of Tenochtitlan. This introduction - the prelude to the Spanish seizure of Mexico City and to European colonization of the mainland of the Americas - has long been the symbol of Cortés' bold and brilliant military genius. Montezuma, on the other hand, is remembered as a coward who gave away a vast empire and touched off a wave of colonial invasions across the hemisphere. But is this really what happened?

To an extraordinary extent we continue to live in the shadow of the classical world. At every level, from languages to calendars to political systems, we are the descendants of a “classical Europe,” using frames of reference created by ancient Mediterranean cultures. As this consistently fresh and surprising new audio book makes clear, however, this was no less true for the inhabitants of those classical civilizations themselves, whose myths, history, and buildings were an elaborate engagement with an already old and revered past - one filled with great leaders and writers....

Reseñas editoriales
In this overview of Roman mythology young listeners are treated to the story of brothers Romulus and Remus and the founding of Rome, as well an outline of Virgil's Aneid, a heroic epic immensely popular in its day. Hosting this iMinds' case study, actor Todd MacDonald brims with curiosity and imagination as he conjures up satyrs and giants, and introduces children to important Roman deities, including Poseidon, Venus, and Athena. MacDonald places these myths in a historical and cultural context, as he examines how they were influenced by Greek religion and ultimately abandoned as a belief system following Emperor Constantine's conversion to Christianity. Sure to capture the intrigue of young audiences, the Aussie actor is emotive and even-paced throughout the proceedings.

Great Short on Roman Mythology
This is a very interesting short introduction to Roman Mythology. One of the most prevalent of these myths is that of Romulus and Remus, They were purported to be sons of Rhea Silvia and either Mars, the god of war, or the demigod hero, Hercules. Abandoned at birth because of a prophecy that they would overthrow their great-uncle Amulius, who had overthrown Silvia's father, Numitor. They were left at the river Tiber by servants, who pitied the infants. The twins were nurtured by a she-wolf until a shepherd named Faustulus found the boys and took them as his sons. Faustulus and his wife Acca Larentia raised the children. When Remus and Romulus became adults, they killed Amulius and restored Numitor as had been prophesied. Romulus and Remus decided to establish a city, but argued about which hill to build it on. They fought, with Romulus killing his brother. Thus, Rome began with a fratricide (the killing of one's brother), a story that was later taken to represent the city's history of internecine political strife and bloodshed. There are many other myths associated with Rome, but this one, associated with the establishment of the city is quite interesting.

This is a super brief intro to Roman mythology. After listening to the elaborate mythologies from great courses, this feels like a summary of a summary of a summary. :)

Hardly long enough to be an INTRODUCTION
Although this says it is a book, it is so short that it seems to be the opening paragraphs of what could have been an interesting essay. alas it leaves MUCH to be desired.
