THEOGONY: A New College Translation

THEOGONY by Hesiod. Translation by Robert Stephan. Hesiod's Theogony, written some 2700 years ago, describes the genealogies of the gods of the ancient Greek world. Guided by the Greek Muses, Hesiod writes in epic Greek form to share the Greek creation myth with his audiences. From chaos come Night, Sun, Sky and Earth herself with all of her constituent parts. We meet Titans, Olympians, Nymphs, the first woman and even mortal heroes. We learn the origins of Zeus, Hera, Hades, Poseidon and hear stories of the battles of the gods. Hesiod weaved together existing tales into a singular narratives, one that influenced the Greek world for centuries to come. Argos Publishing 2022. ISBN-13: 9781234567890 ISBN-10: 1477123456.
