Hesiod
Forfatter af Theogony / Works and Days
Om forfatteren
The poet Hesiod tells us that his father gave up sea-trading and moved from Ascra to Boeotia, that as he himself tended sheep on Mount Helicon the Muses commanded him to sing of the gods, and that he won a tripod for a funeral song at Chalcis. The poems credited to him with certainty are: the vis mere Theogony, an attempt to bring order into the otherwise chaotic material of Greek mythology through genealogies and anecdotes about the gods; and The Works and Days, a wise sermon addressed to his brother Perses as a result of a dispute over their dead father's estate. This latter work presents the injustice of the world with mythological examples and memorable images, and concludes with a collection of folk wisdom. Uncertain attributions are the Shield of Heracles and the Catalogue of Women. Hesiod is a didactic and individualistic poet who is often compared and contrasted with Homer, as both are representative of early epic style. "Hesiod is earth-bound and dun colored; indeed part of his purpose is to discredit the brilliance and the ideals of heroism glorified in the homeric tradition. But Hesiod, too, is poetry, though of a different order. . . " (Moses Hadas, N.Y. Times). (Bowker Author Biography) vis mindre

…. Yeah, I feel like I like Hesiod better than Homer. Some of it seems rather useful, more educational-religious, although of course much of it is random people just being boss, of course. And there is some overlap, of course, since heroes are like gods, and religion involves the human as well as the divine, (sometimes you lose sight of that in Christianity, with the whole Jesus saves you suck thing, “remember to tell God you’re a sinner”), and obvs Zeus is every boy’s fantasy, right—which is both very boss, and a little…. “And finally, at the top of the head is the Crown Chakra.” (Zeus) (pointing to Sacral Chakra) “Got my Crown Chakra right here, bitches.”
But the antique farming advice is actually quite interesting; I feel like the lived details of experience really mean as much as the abstractions; I’m not going to tell you what I learned, because it’s easy to write it off as boring/un-abstract or whatever, but I was lost driving along these crappy rural roads for like an hour yesterday, and I feel like I learned a lot about life, you know…. And the actual magical/superstitious qualities of days (days numbered in the lunar month? Or the solar month?) in “Works and Days” is really cool; I regret that it’s not longer….
But yeah, Hesiod is also kind of a bastard, much of the time, right. Hesiod war ein Mann, Kinder. Hesiod was a man, children. Although he wrote about the most rational, Kantian things, like how wives are bitches, and killing wild animals is both economically effective, (cartoon voice), and, fun! And on an unrelated—totally unrelated—note, he also loved golden Aphrodite…. Although, having accomplished his desire, 😉, he immediately got up and went off to kill more wild animals, right….… (mere)
