Najljepše priče klasične starine

Najljepše priče klasične starine

Gustav Schwab

Schwab's work restores and develops a sense of the value of antiquity, that inexhaustible source of folk fantasy that seeks to interpret and explain the world with the original poetic power recognized in the traditions of ancient man.

Greek myths especially marked the very basis of the entire Western culture, they have diverse motifs and great poetic beauty. Olympian, underground and sea gods, lower deities, and heroes who are of divine origin by father or mother, are the main heroes of these mythical stories. The most famous are Prometheus, Heracles, Theseus, Dioscuri, Jason, Perseus, Achilles, Melagar, and many others who carry out often difficult and dangerous tasks assigned to them by the gods or customs inherited from the gods. Schwab covers larger mythological cycles, such as the Trojan War, but there are also the famous heroes Daedalus and Icarus, the Argonauts, Orpheus and Eurydice, Antigone and many others.
