Summary, etc |
"Together these two poets offer a superb introduction to the life and thought of archaic Greece. Hesiod's Theogony (c.725 B.C.) is a primitive creation of myth: it contains all the elements of a story - dark forces, sex and violence - but can also be read as philosophical speculation of a high order, and it soars to religious heights in its hymns. In contrast, his Works and Days, also included in this volume, is an intriguing combination of agricultural advice, moral maxims, social and political comment and superstitious lore. <br/>Theognis, the savage and suspicious author of many short elegiac poems, writing some two centuries later than Hesiod, ranges from serious theological questioning to satire and intensely personal love lyrics, and reflects the moods and themes of an aristocratic poet who mourned a changing Greek society." -- Back cover. |
