Classical Mythology

Gods and Heroes

Director(s): André Hatala

This CD-Rom is an ideal introduction to the gods and heroes of the Greco-Roman world. It presents the major figures of the classical Pantheon: their lives, their tumultuous relationships, their relationships with mortals. It focuses on some 335 paintings and sculptures in French museums, dating from the 16th century BC to Picasso (162 of which are classical originals), shedding light on them with audio recordings of myths, maps, lexicons, and a family tree of gods and heroes.
