On the contrary, Hamilton notes, the lives of ancient people were not romantic and beautiful, but full of hardship, disease, and violence. For Hamilton, the Greek myths are remarkable in that they show how far the Greeks, an ancient civilization, had advanced beyond a primitive state of savagery and brutality.

Our surviving sources of mythology are literary reworkings of this oral tradition, supplemented by interpretations of iconic imagery, sometimes modern ones, sometimes ancient ones, as myth was a means for later Greeks themselves to throw light on cult practices and traditions that were no longer explicable. The historian must sometimes deduce from hints in imagery, such as in vase paintings, and offhand references the recognition of mythic themes tacitly expressed in cult practice The general issues in studying myths are discussed in the mythography article.

Annotated Bibliography of Women in Classical Mythology by Moya K. Mason Introduction The study of Ancient Greek and Roman society falls under the term Classics, and describes the history, art and architecture, politics, literature, philosophy, music, religion, and mythology of two of the world's greatest civilizations. The Greeks and Romans are studied together because of the complex and important ties they had with one another. It is true that the Romans conquered Greece and took over its empire, but in turn, Greece captured the hearts and minds of the Roman people, teaching them about their language, gods, and literature. Indeed, the fact that Greek ideas and important works have survived and become the foundation for Western Civilization, is due in no small part to the Romans' adopting, spreading, and heralding them across their empire. As the legendary H. I. Marrou wrote in A History of Education in Antiquity If Greek civilization in its turn had remained the jealously guarded preserve of a few Aegean cities, it too would have disappeared long ago, without renewing, as it has, the face of the earth. And the fact that it has fulfilled its destiny is largely due to Rome. Rome's historic function was to complete the work begun by Alexander, and plant Hellenistic civilization from the Sahara to the lochs of Scotland, from the Euphrates to the Atlantic; and to give it such deep roots that it could withstand the storms of Teuton and Slav invasions, and the Arab invasion, if not that of the Turks. It is this profound labor, ensuring the renaissances of the future, that constitutes Rome's real honor and imperishable glory

49. Classical Monsters Monsters in classical mythology are typically part animal and part human, or else they constitute a collection of animal graftings. http://www.wsu.edu/~delahoyd/classical.monsters.html

MONSTERS IN CLASSICAL MYTHOLOGY Monsters in classical mythology are typically part animal and part human, or else they constitute a collection of animal graftings. They are not really horror monsters, just unpleasant or nasty afflictions sent by the gods. They often do no more than throw into relief the heroism of the protagonist (e.g., Perseus, Oedipus, Odysseus, Theseus) by existing simply to be overcome or destroyed as obstacles to his goal. In modern monster stories, conversely, heroes are boring and draw little interest whereas we remember the monster. It is the monster who lives on and who even lends its name to the story (e.g., Dracula The Mummy The Wolf Man The Blob , etc.). Check out a translation of the section of Virgil's Aeneid , Book VI, describing Aeneas' entrance into the "jaws of Orcus" (VI.13) the mouth of hell. There, two initial batches of monstrosities are met. 1) We first hear of abstractions such as "Grief and avenging Cares ... pale Diseases and sad Age ... Dread, and Hunger ... sordid Want ... Death and Toil and Death's own brother, Sleep ... Death-bringing War ... and raving Discord, / Viperish hair bound up in gory bands" (VI.14-22). These are very clearly cultural vilifications vs. what one first wants to insist. But there's nothing "sinful" about Age or Discord (called "raving Discord, / Viperish hair bound up in gory bands"). A less western philosophy turns Toil into a more positive experience. Sleep may resemble Death (and so is called its "brother"), but one has to be a little paranoid to place it among the horrors at the mouth of hell.

CLST 271: Classical Mythology Fall Semester 2002 In this Core Literature course we will investigate how the ancient Greeks and Romans used traditional narratives and images to explore, explain, and experiment with ideas about the universe. How did existence come to be? What fundamental forces make things happen? What is divine? What is natural? What isn't? Where do human beings fit in? How can human beings get beyond the limits of their humanity? Does gender matter? Death? Communities? These fundamental and transcendent ideas have continued to influence Western thought and artistic production ever since antiquity. No less importantly, they also remain really, really good stories. Class meetings will focus on discussion of selected ancient texts (read in translation), ancient artworks, and experiments of our own.

Some internet resources for further exploration and research General mythology websites Names and stories Texts Images ... Maps A cautionary word The internet is an extraordinary tool for finding information quickly and conveniently. However, much of that information is valueless, since just about anyone can "publish" on-line just about anything they want. The first rule , then, is not to accept anything you read on the web just because it's there. Verify statements on your own by referring to materials you know are (on the whole) reliable: our textbook, mythological or classical dictionaries you find in our library, and so on. Don't let the ease of using the internet keep you from getting acquainted with our library's collection, which is much more comprehensive than anything you will find on the web (not to mention the question of reliability). I have put on reserve at the Reserve Book Room (RBR) a number of useful print resources which I encourage you to browse as soon as your research becomes more serious than mere "web-surfing." The second rule plagiarism . (The Perseus Project has an informative page on , including an example of web-citation.)
