Perseus
Autor
Daniel Ogden (University Of Exeter, Uk)
The son of Zeus, Perseus belongs in the first rank of Greek heroes. Indeed to some he was a greater hero even than Heracles. With the help of Hermes and Athena he slew the Gorgon Medusa, conquered a mighty sea monster and won the hand of the beautiful princess Andromeda. This volume describes his myth, and it's rendering in art and literature.
