Synopsis

The ancient world is to modern students a distant planet, in the deep obscurity of space. They struggle to observe the complexity of her features; they cannot hear the hum of her poets through the intervening remoteness. We must remember, however, that as our earth whirls along its accustomed circuit, it displays the same celestial vault whose nocturnal decoration once inspired the ancient bardic spirit. Astra Antīqua contains more than 70 Latin stories which our night sky illustrates in such shimmering figures as Hercules, Perseus, Phaethon, the Argo, and more. These versions of the stories were originally written by R. B. Appleton and published in 1914 under the title Fabulae Virginibus Puerisque aut Narrandae aut Recitandae.
