Thoroughly revised and expanded, The Facts on File Encyclopedia of World Mythology and Legend, Second Edition presents an incomparable survey of myths, fables and legends from around the world and throughout the ages.

· Meanings and origins of botanical, zoological, and other images and motifs
· The influence of myths and legends on art, music and literature

An index of myths and legends arranged by culture and ethnic group makes this reference accessible to both high school and undergraduate students and researchers.

From Greek and Roman to Norse and Native American gods, Aesop's Fables to the tales of the Brothers Grimm, the biblical Abraham to Abraham Lincoln, this is a fascinating and invaluable resource for students of art, history or literature, or for anyone who enjoys myths, legends and fables.
