[edit] Cleanup Tag
I had to add a cleanup tag. This article is actually very confusing. It's almost stream-of-consciousness writing! Something about Hebrew history and the Psalms then suddenly we're talking about his obituary (I assume it's referring to Thomas Bulfinch's obituary). Then something about Rome... it's like reading Ulysses. In response to the person who asked about Celtic mythology - no, Bulfinch doesn't go far beyond Saxon, Germanic and Norse mythology (although his sources for Charlemagne were all Italian writers according to his introduction to his third book) except of course Greek and Roman myths. Also, as I've mentioned I noted the cleanup tag as April 2007 even though today is March the 31st. I really don't know much about about Bulfinch's personal life and would have loved to see some decent criticisms of his work noted in this article. Wellesradio 17:38, 31 March 2007 (UTC)Wellesradio
