Abstract
Greek and Roman mythology is one of the origins of the western civilization, which has a far-reaching influence on the western culture. English literature is another crystal of human being’s wisdom after the Greco-Roman mythology. Many famous writers continuously sought inspiration in the myths. It is easy for us to find that there are so many works closely related to the Greco-Roman mythology. The influence of Greco-Roman mythology upon English literature is beyond description. As an English learner, if we don’t have enough knowledge of Greek and Roman mythology, it is hard for us to understand and appreciate many classical works. Therefore, it is necessary for us to know more about the Greco-Roman mythology, which can help us to understand the classic literary works and improve an appreciation of aesthetics and imagination.
Key Words: Greco-Roman mythology; English literature; poem; imagination
