Después del éxito obtenido por El libro de las maravillas, Nathaniel Hawthorne recibió de sus editores la propuesta de escribir una nueva serie de cuentos infantiles basados en la mitología griega. Y de este encargo, que el autor acometió con gran ilusión, surgieron estos Cuentos de Tanglewood en 1853. En ellos recreó con su peculiar humor y sentido épico seis nuevas historias: el reencuentro de Teseo con su padre y su lucha con el Minotauro.
