Synopsis
Just as the Roman Empire spread Greek culture throughout the world, Roman mythology continued the Greek tradition of grand storytelling by becoming a continuation of Greek mythology. The Aeneid, the poet Virgil's masterpiece, tells the journey of the Trojan lord Aeneas as he leaves the destruction of the Trojan War behind to discover a new home in Italy. The poet Ovid's Metamorphoses inventively re-tells the Greek myths by linking them together through the theme of metamorphosis or transformation. The allegorical myth of Cupid and Psyche analyzes the connection between the heart and the mind. The legends of Romulus and Remus, the Sabine women, and Lucretia explain how Rome was founded and then grew into a mighty republic. This textbook includes 11 script-stories that re-tell these wonderful Roman myths. Each script-story is prefaced by a 2-page teacher guide complete with background information, story summary, pre- and post-story discussion questions, project ideas that connect the myths to the modern world, and terms that can be taught using the script. Also included is a battlefield strategy game, a glossary of important characters, and a name pronunciation guide., Roman mythology continues the grand storytelling tradition of Greek mythology.

    Book is in excellent condition. It did arrive a week and a half later than it was originally supposed to. I reached out to the seller which took a bit of time to receive a response. The book was a good value and it did ship in a bubble envelope which always helps with protecting the books from postal handling/damage.

    Shipping took a little longer than it initially said but the book still arrived just as described in fantastic condition. I wasn't a huge fan of the packaging though, as it was just wrapped in a simple thin plastic sleeve with zero cushion or padding and I've had books completely destroyed because there was nothing to protect them so if possible I'd like to see the seller provide a safer package when shipping books. But thankfully mine wasn't damaged in transit!
