"Mythology has played an important role in the age of Renaissance and Baroque. The classical myths have provided themes and subjects for the arts in their different expressions: painting, sculpture, literature, music, theatre ... Mythological figures and stories have often served as moralistic examples, in bono or in malo, and as allegorical points of reference, e.g. in education. The pluridisciplinary study of these phenomena throws light upon the intellectual climate of the period."--Jacket.
