The original image comprising the work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason: This ebook features an illustrated biography of Mary Renault including rare images of the author.This is a faithful photographic reproduction of an original two-dimensional work of art.
Renault’s story of Theseus continues with the sequel The Bull from the Sea. Richly imbued with the spirit of its time, this is a page-turner as well as a daring act of imagination.
The story follows Theseus’s adventures from Troizen to Eleusis, where the death in the book’s title is to take place, and from Athens to Crete, where he learns to jump bulls and is named king of the victims. Drawing on modern scholarship and archaeological findings at Knossos, Mary Renault’s Theseus is an utterly lifelike figure-a king of immense charisma, whose boundless strivings flow from strength and weakness-but also one steered by implacable prophecy. What the founder-hero might have been in real life is another question, brilliantly explored in The King Must Die. In myth, Theseus was the slayer of the child-devouring Minotaur in Crete. New York Times Bestseller: This retelling of the Greek myth of Theseus, king of Athens, is “one of the truly fine historical novels of modern times” ( The New York Times).
