"Curious Myths of the Middle Ages" is an extremely interesting 19th-century analysis of a handful of medieval legends and beliefs. Each chapter retells a myth and then reviews similar myths from various cultures to track their origins. In this book, a reader can find fantastic stories of the courts of pagan goddesses hidden inside mountains, men condemned to perpetual wandering without the welcome rest of death, and the continued terrestrial existence.
