| Summary |
Myths and Monsters takes its audience on a journey through the mythic landscape of Europe, revealing the origins of the most famous legends this continent has produced and exploring why they have endured so long. In each episode, we examine thematically-linked myths from around Europe. Scholars from top British universities explain the history behind these stories and the meanings hidden within. Tying the four myths together is one central story woven through each episode. Dramatically narrated by our presenter Nicholas Day, the myth is brought to life with fantastic animation created especially for this series. With each episode, we reveal the strange roots of familiar tales and the universal impulses that lie behind even the most bizarre of myths and monsters. |
