Summary
Understanding Mythology book emphasised on three elements which are classical, architectural and comparative. These three elements are the most important part to study mythology. In my opinion, this book provide an excellent data regarding the world perspective of myths. The three elements had been explained in systematic way in this book. It had been broadly explained in each of the chapters. The world mythology that mentioned are Europe, Asia and America. In my observation through this book, each continent may presenting their story differently, but from the three element mentioned above (Classical, architectural and comparative), reader can see the similarity between all of the stories. By reading this book, reader learn a systematic way to exegete the context of each mythology that they want to study.
