"1000 Mythological Characters Briefly Described" by Edward Sylvester Ellis is a reference book written in the late 19th century. This work serves as a comprehensive guide to various mythological figures, offering brief descriptions adapted for use in private schools and educational academies. The book encapsulates a wide range of characters from ancient mythologies, particularly focusing on narratives from Greek, Roman, and other cultural traditions. At the start of the book, Ellis introduces the complexity and significance of myths, noting their universal presence across cultures as explanations for creation and existence. He touches on differing scholarly perspectives on the origins of mythology, including the philological and anthropological interpretations, illustrating how language and human experience intertwine in the formation of these stories. Following this scholarly introduction, the text begins listing mythological characters, systematically providing their names and succinct accounts of their stories, such as the tragic fate of Medusa and the heroic deeds of Hercules, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of these rich narratives.
