Why we Should Learn Mythology and an Introduction to Ancient Pantheons

Lyon Leshley

Let's consider what we mean by 'mythology.' At its core, mythology refers to a collection of myths-traditional stories that have been passed down through generations. These stories often explain natural phenomena, illuminate human experiences, and encapsulate the values and beliefs of a culture. In this presentation, we will delve into the multifaceted roles that mythology plays in our lives. You might be wondering: Why should we take time to study mythology in our rapidly modernizing world? The answer lies in the profound insights these ancient tales offer us about ourselves and our society. As we venture through this lecture, we'll uncover how mythology influences various aspects of our lives, from art and literature to psychology and education. Myths contribute to our understanding of morality, identity, and the human experience. They help shape cultural norms and provide a rich tapestry of stories that resonate across time and space. In this book, we will discover many reasons why learning mythology is essential and about the ancient pantheons that still have their influence to this day. In this volume, we will also explore the myths of ancient Greece, Egypt, Norse, Celtic, and Rome.
