Summary:	"This book tells how two ancient societies, Greece and Rome, transmitted their ideals and moralities in legends to successive civilizations, faraway in time and place. It shows how the legend of Cyrus the Great and the legend of Lucretia, ever gathering fresh strength and beauty from the ancient way of telling and with the new, echo and re-echo throughout the Western World through varied forms in which continuously man seeks to discover himself."--Jacket.
