О книге

Excerpt from The Heroes: Or Greek Fairy Tales, for My Children

[I owe an apology to the few scholars who may happen to read this hasty jeu d'esprit, for the inconsistent method in which I have spelt Greek names. The rule which I have tried to follow has been this: When the word has been hopelessly Latinized, as "Ph?bus" has been, I have left it as it usually stands; but in other cases I have tried to keep the plain Greek spelling, except when it would have seemed peaantic, or when, as in the word "Tiphus", I should have given an altogether wrong notion of the sound of the word. It has been a choice of difficulties, which has been forced on me by our strange habit of introducing boys to the Greek myths, not in their original shape, but in a Roman disguise.]
