Great Mythologies of the World Audio Book Summary:
Mythology has been one of the staple creations of every culture that has set foot on our planet since time immemorial. Every society on every part of the Earth developed their mythologies. These legends not only helped people of the past explain certain aspects of the world that they have yet to comprehend but it also offered a glimpse of their very own psyche.
Mythologies from Asia, America, Europe, Africa and the Middle East are still around today which is a testament to their importance. In this audiobook, we take a closer look at these mythologies in the hopes of understanding their importance to human culture and society. Aim to answer one of the biggest questions of mythology in that why most archetypes found in these stories seem to have similarities with one another, even when their cultures are separated by miles and miles of ocean?
One reason to listen:
This is a real eye opener and offers in-depth study of every mythology known to man. This is a great audiobook for not only academics but also for those who legitimately want to learn more about mythologies and their underlying meaning.

“I loved this great course! In Particular, African and Native American myths were fantastic as I was less familiar with these. There are layers here and avenues to better understand who we are and why we think the way we do.” – Jeffrey

“Without a doubt, there is a lot of information. In one series, the listeners go around the world to realize how different groups reasoned the creation, death, the misery or injustices of daily lives, the environment, other animals and other vagaries of our existence.” – NJ

“The material was interesting, but one of the lecturers (the second one, lecturing on the myths of Africa) was so difficult to listen to I almost abandoned the whole lecture.” – Michael G. Jones
