Looking for encompassing (as possible as) books for greek mythology. I was reading Bullfinch but its hilariously victorian.

>>25090553>reading mythological accounts written by an English atheist poofter Couldn't be me.
>>25090549Boccaccio, Genealogy of the Pagan GodsRambling Renaissance Italian that was the standard work on Greco-Roman mythology until the late 18th century. A new translation has recently been published:https://www.stevedonoghue.com/review-archives/book-review-geneaology-of-the-pagan-gods
>>25090549Just read a translation of Ovid. Or get an audio book version and listen to it. Everything else is going to be downwind of Ovid and not as good.Reading the corpus of Greek tragedy will fill in the gaps, along with Homer and Hesiod.I found Lefkowitz's Women in Greek Myth very good in the topic of women.
