World mythologies, one bilingual library
Mythoblog brings together encyclopedic entries, narrative retellings and comparative essays across world mythologies, available in French and English. Greek, Egyptian and Norse traditions are covered in depth today; each entry names its ancient sources and says where they disagree.
Français
Encyclopédie vivante des mythologies du monde : dieux, héros, créatures, récits fondateurs et analyses transversales. Les fiches citent leurs sources antiques, exposent les variantes du mythe et renvoient aux autres pages du cluster plutôt que de s'arrêter à un résumé.
English
A growing mythology reference with gods, heroes, creatures, foundational stories and cross-cultural comparisons. Entries cite their ancient sources, set out the variants of each myth and link on to the rest of the cluster rather than stopping at a summary.
Reference entries for gods, heroes, creatures, places and objects; retellings of the founding stories from the Theogony to the Völuspá; comparative dossiers that set traditions side by side; and an interactive family tree for every pantheon documented well enough to support one. Each tradition also has an A-to-Z index and hubs for its gods, heroes, creatures, places and objects.
Every page answers its question in the opening lines, then names the ancient sources it rests on — Hesiod, the Homeric Hymns, the Pyramid Texts, the Poetic Edda — and marks the points where those sources contradict each other instead of smoothing the variants away.
In English, open Greek mythology, Egyptian mythology or Norse mythology. En français, commencez par la mythologie grecque, l’égyptienne ou la nordique.
