Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes is a 1942 book written by Edith Hamilton. It is an anthology of Greek, Roman, and Norse mythology compiled from classical sources. The introduction to the text includes a commentary on the major contributing poets throughout history and the changing characterization of myth and deities as cultures have evolved. Since its publication, it has become one of the most read, powerful, and critically-acclaimed books of Western and Classical mythology, and is frequently used in colleges as an introductory text. It includes sections containing the stories of nearly all major mythological figures.

Not including the introduction, the book contains seven sections. The first tells about the gods of Olympus and how the world came to be. The second part tells stories of love and adventure. It includes the tales of Cupid and Psyche and the Quest for the Golden Fleece. The third part details the stories of heroes before the Trojan War. It includes Perseus, Theseus, Hercules, and Atalanta. The fourth part tells the stories of the heroes of the Trojan War, including Odysseus and Aeneas. The fifth part tells about three famous families of mythology: The House of Atreus, The Royal House of Thebes, and The Royal House of Athens. The sixth part tells the less important Greek and Roman stories, and the seventh and final section tells the myths of the Norse.
