Synopsis

The price of knowledge is pain. Hercules paid in full.
Greek mythology is full of fantastic tales of heroes, monsters, gods, and goddesses. But there is more to the tales than what a first reading will give.

The twelve labours of Hercules has been told for three-thousand years and still enchants readers today. But why? It is because the labours of Hercules tell of the same journey in life that all people go through. It is the harsh passage of initation that leads to the attainment of enlightenment.

This book will retell each of his labours and together we will discuss the deeper meanings. With the interpretations of ancient scholars and modern mythologists, the myth of Hercules will finally be revealed for what it really is.

For fans of Joseph Campbell, Sir James Frazer, Thomas Bullfinch, Carl Jung, Sigmund Freud and all the classical scholars including, Plato, Aristotle and Apollodorus.

À propos de l?auteur

Robert David Jones has been studying classics his whole life. His passion is in ancient cultures and languages, and the study of mythology has been integral in his own life's development. This is his first published full-length work where he endeavoured to share the importance of mythology with the world in a way that it can be applicable to the reader's own life. When Robert isn't studying, he is working as a geologist, and between these two passions he shares his life with his beautiful fiancée and step-daughter. He keeps a historical blog called Liber Historiae where you can keep up to date on all his work.
