«Los mitos griegos» is Robert Graves's essay on mythology, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardcover (768 pages, in Spanish).
Robert Graves reconstructs the myths and legends of classical Greece, combining scholarship with narrative prose. Gods and heroes such as Zeus, Aphrodite, Heracles, Theseus and Oedipus populate these pages; the author approaches the Greek religious imagination from ethnology and the comparative study of religions.
The text, originally published in 1955 as The Greek Myths, appears in this edition in a translation by Esther Gómez Parro and includes bibliographic references and an index.
Suitable for readers interested in classical mythology and for students or teachers seeking a reference work on ancient Greece.
Robert Ranke Graves, whose second name is sometimes given as von Ranke, was an English poet, novelist and critic. His father was Alfred Perceval Graves, a celebrated Irish poet and figure in the Gaelic revival; they were both Celticists and students of Irish mythology.
