About this listen
Dos manuscritos en un libro
- Mitología Griega: Fascinantes Mitos de Dioses, Diosas, Monstruos y Héroes Griegos
- Mitología Romana: Una Guía Fascinante de los Dioses Romanos, Diosas y Criaturas Mitológicas
Aunque los dioses y diosas griegos eran seres inmortales y poderosos, estos eran muy similares a los humanos que los adoraban. Los dioses y diosas sufren ataques de celos, se enamoran, se enfadan cuando se sienten engañados, y otorgan bendiciones cuando son honrados. De igual modo, los héroes son de proporciones épicas: su fuerza, velocidad y habilidad los separan de otros mortales; pero, como todos los humanos, sufren de dolores, enfermedades y muerte.
Este libro es una ventana al pasado. A través de él podrás disfrutar de historias entretenidas mientras aprendes sobre los mitos griegos. Mitos que subyacen en las raíces de la civilización occidental, marcando su cultura y lenguaje.
Algunos de los temas y preguntas cubiertos en la primera parte de este libro incluyen
- La Creación de los Titanes
- El Nacimiento de los Dioses y la Caída de los Titanes
- Prometeo y Epimeteo
- El Nacimiento de las Musas

- Atenea de los ojos grises, Diosa de la Sabiduría y Estrategia

Story
Edgar Allan Poe fue un gran escritor romántico y precursor de simbolismos, decadentistas y estilistas, fue, al tiempo que un gran poeta, un verdadero iniciador. Aún hoy géneros literarios tan consagrados como la narrativa fantástica y de ciencia ficción, la narrativa policial o la novela de aventuras llevan su impronta inconfundible. Fascinado por la muerte y por todas las formas del terror, dio lo mejor de su talento en sus cuentos de misterio, manifestando además un vibrante interés por lo ridículo y absurdo.

En esta obra Maquiavelo enumera las condiciones que han de caracterizar a un príncipe, entendida esta figura como la cabeza o jefe del Estado. Podemos decir que es un libro práctico, pues pretende dar normas de acción. Intentó el autor teorizar sobre la naturaleza del Estado, sobre la sociedad en que se sustenta y sobre todo en las formas de adquirir y perder el poder y las formas de mantenerse en él.

Story
La enorme cantidad de combatientes que periódicamente zarpaban hacia el Cercano Oriente para luchar contra los musulmanes son una prueba de la popularidad generalizada del aventurerismo en el extranjero en ese momento. La idea de una cruzada, en la que grandes ejércitos procedentes de varias regiones de Europa se reunían con el fin de luchar contra los musulmanes turcos y árabes, quedó tan arraigada que se amplió para incluir a las cruzadas contra las sectas cristianas europeas heréticas.

Story
Uno de los períodos menos entendidos de la historia europea ocurrió entre el siglo VI y el siglo XIV o XV (dependiendo del historiador que pregunte). Comúnmente llamado la Edad Media, este fue un período de cambio extremo para Europa, que comenzó con la caída del Imperio romano de Occidente. Para un continente que había visto un cambio drástico en la estructura de poder, el mundo parecía ser particularmente duro. Roma había sido un jugador importante en toda Europa durante más de un milenio. Luego desapareció.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

The Roman Republic is one of the most breathtaking civilizations in world history. Between roughly 500 BCE to the turn of the millennium, a modest city-state developed an innovative system of government and expanded into far-flung territories across Europe, Northern Africa, and the Middle East. This powerful civilization inspired America's founding fathers, gifted us a blueprint for amazing engineering innovations, left a vital trove of myths, and has inspired the human imagination for 2,000 years.

Loved it then, great audible.
The audible version is perfect. Matt Clayton's prose style is borderline "quaint" but adds a nice personal touch. The lack of commas in places may require a couple reads of some sentences. Even so I highly recommend Mythology as it covers both Greek, Roman, along with teaser Norse mythology.

Would have given it a 5-star rating; however, some of the pages are really discolored, unclean looking, a lot of dog-eared pages, and bent cover page. But it does do the job, no pages seem to be missing so far and it is still readable.

A Classic of Mythology Research
I first read this amazing collection as a high school student interested in Greek and Roman mythology. Now, as a teacher of English at the high school level myself, I have re-read and recommended this book to a great many students. For someone wanting to delve deeper into Norse, Greek, and Roman mythology, but not yet ready for the commitment that Bullfinch might take. I keep several copies on my shelf, and now have it on Kindle as well.

Great book on Greek mythology.
I have to say, I'm disappointed I didn't discover Matt Clayton sooner. I loved every moment of this book. It focuses mainly on Greek mythology, although there is a brief section on Norse mythology at the end. I appreciate that she lists her sources for each story at the beginning of the chapter and her telling of the these myths are easily read, but not over simplified and the result is highly enjoyable.

Best way to learn history, listen to it.
It is more interested in what modern readers can learn and understand of ancient Greece THROUGH Greek myth, which is, by her own admission, a little shaky. If you listen to other lectures given by historians or archaeologists who use different evidence and materials, it's not surprising that they may understand an institution, or interpret a phenomenon, in vastly different ways.

A Valuable Resource
I especially enjoyed Matt Clayton's sharp critiques of the Greek, Roman and Norse authors who provided her source material as well as her skillful ability to merge details from several different versions of most of the legends into seamless, compelling stories. Scholarly and yet accessible to the general reader, this book is absolutely essential reading for anyone who is interested in understanding the roots of Western civilization.
