Also included are the legends of Robin Hood, and of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, epics from Asia, such as the Mahabharata and Gilgamesh, and a host of tales from Aztec mythology and a range of other cultures.\n\nAs well as offering the retellings themselves, Myths, Legends, and Sacred Stories: a visual encyclopedia investigates the meanings of these primal stories, examining why these tales have stood the test of time over thousands of years. Themed features draw together elements that are common to myths from all over the world, such as shapeshifters, mythical beasts, and magical weapons. Panels on modern retellings, such as Percy Jackson and The Little Mermaid, help to show why these myths are still relevant to our lives today.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch5\u003eFicha técnica\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensiones 11.1 in H | 8.8 in W | 1 in T | 2.8 lb WtNúmero de paginas 240Publicación 26102021Empastado Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch5\u003eSobre el autor\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cp\u003ePhilip Wilkinson\nPhilip Wilkinson has more than 50 titles to his credit in the fields of history, mythology, and the arts, including DK's Illustrated Dictionaries of Mythology and Religions and DK's Eyewitness Companion: Mythology, as well as A Celebration of Customs and Rituals of the World, which was endorsed by the United Nations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Philip Wilkinson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43905750761720,"sku":"9780744048698","price":40.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/4897\/5608\/products\/9780744048698_6b674e4e-2bf4-4c26-a55b-528473561939.jpg?v=1688081885"},{"product_id":"where-is-the-bermuda-triangle","title":"Where Is the Bermuda Triangle?","description":"\u003cp\u003eWho doesn't love a great mystery?
