On appelle Mythologie la science qui apprend à connaître l'histoire et les attributions des divinités du Paganisme. Les croyances du paganisme ne présentent qu'un amas confus de traditions, d'apologues et de contes plus ou moins ingénieux, embellis par les poètes, et auxquels la fantaisie de chaque siècle et de chaque pays ajoutait de nouveaux détails ; mais ces inventions mensongères ont joué un rôle si important dans l'histoire des anciens peuples, elles ont fourni de si nombreux sujets de compositions aux écrivains et aux artistes, que la connaissance nous en est indispensable.
Cet ouvrage didactique est divisé en quatre parties : les Dieux principaux ; les Dieux du second ordre ; les Demi-Dieux et les Héros ; le culte rendu aux faux Dieux, les jeux publics, les monuments et les usages de l'antiquité.
Cette édition en couleurs est magnifiquement illustrée à l'aide de peintures classiques, de gravures anciennes et de dessins.
