Charles Kingsley was one of the apostles of this new revelation, which brought hope back to the world and filled all men with vigor to work under the encouragement which the God of love held out to us.

The Story of Theseus and the Minotaur Charles Kingsley in The Heroes and Nathaniel Hawthorne in Tanglewood Tales have familiarized most English-speaking people with the story of the exploits of Theseus, and doubtless most folks have some acquaintance with the first volume of Plutarch's Lives.
