    Extractions: Greek philosopher who described his cosmology and cosmogony in the Theogeny . Hesiod's explanations of how the gods came about was probably derived from Near Eastern (Babylonian) lore. He created a family tree of gods in which Chaos (the yawning gap) produced Erebus (the Abyss) and Night, who produced Aether and Day. At the same time, Earth produced the Heavens, Mountains, and Sea. The Heavens and Earth then produced Cronos. He also divided the universe into Heaven, Aether, Earth, Erebus, Tartarus, and surrounded it by the Ocean. The difference in levels between Earth and Heaven was called Chaos.

    Extractions: He is one of the oldest Greek poets born in Askra of Boeotia in the 8th century. He wrote two great poems: "Works and Days" and "Theogony". In "Works and Days" he speaks about justice and hard work, which is the only way to success, and he gives advice about agriculture, commerce, navigation as well as about marriage, bringing-up children and other moral and useful precepts. "Theogony" is an Epic which consists of 1022 lines and his author treats the birth and the history of the Greek gods as well as the creation of the Universe. According to him Chaos was out there first, then Earth, Tartarus - in the depth of Earth -, and last of all Eros (Love). Eros is the natural power which caused the union of the identical parts of matter resulting in the formation of several bodies, and by keeping them united it kept the whole Universe in order. These four elements are mentioned as self made elements and not as coming from each other. By "chaos" Hesiod means the dark which dominated everywhere (or water). From Chaos came forth Erebus and Night and then night bare Aether and Day. And Earth first gave birth to Uranos (Heaven), then Mountains and Pontus.

    Extractions: Hesiod, a poor farmer, was believed to have written in the ninth, sometimes eighth century. Hesiod was the author of several significant poems, the most meaningful being the Iliad Odyssey , and Theogony . Hesiod was believed to have been the first man in Greece to wonder how everything had happened, the world, the sky, the gods, mankind, and to think out an explanation. The Theogony is an account of the creation of the universe and the generations of gods, and this has been proven to be very useful in increasing our knowledge about Greek mythology. Aeschylus was the oldest of the three tragic poets, the other two being Sophocles and Euripides. Except for Aeschylus' Persians , written to celebrate the Greeks victory over the Persians, all of his plays contain mythological subjects. Along with Homer , these works provide the main foundation of our knowledge of Greek mythology. Apuleius, a Latin writer, was believed to have written in the second century AD. The famous love story of Cupid and Psyche is told only by Apuleius, who writing style and patterns have often said to have mimicked

    Extractions: Hesiod from Ascra was a famous poet in ancient Greece, living about 740-670 B.C. His mentioning of the Pleiades and the Hyades in his work, "Works and Days," of about 720 to 700 B.C., is one of the first known documents related to these two open star clusters in Taurus; only Homer 's mentioning in his Ilias is probably a couple of decades older. Hesiod is commemorated by the naming of Moon Crater Hesiodus (29.4S, 16.3W, 42.0, named 1935), Mercury crater Hesiod (58.5S, 35.0W, 107.0 km, in 1976) as well as asteroid (8550) Hesiodos (discovered August 12, 1994 on La Silla by E.W.

He described the history of the world in five phases or periods, starting with the Golden age until the evil Iron age.
