Publisher Description: Hesiod was a pioneering poet from the time of Homer. His poetry was the first to discuss the self as a central theme, inspiring writing as a manifestation of individuality. Meanwhile, Homer is considered the greatest of Greek poets. His works are a landmark of Western culture. These collected works offer a cohesive glimpse at the shaping of Greek mythology and the roots of a literary canon whose influence cannot be overstated. |
