Status Updates From Los mitos griegos (edición ...

Since the past Monday I finished most of the Creation Myths. My personal favorites were the Homeric and Orphic Myths and The Olympian Creation Myths, I was familiar with the latter but not the others. In the Homeric and Orphic Myths they talk about Nyx and Eros who I know but I didn’t know they had a creation myth. One thing I noticed was that in each Myth, a Goddess was the creator (other then the Homeric Myths).

I got mostly done with the introduction of The Greek Myths and so far I love how he delves into the culture and religion of the world before the hellenistic period. I've also read the chapter about Dionysus's nature and deeds and was somewhat surprised by how much madness was in his and his cults original myths (somewhat). It was also really cool to see gaia, his great grandmother and mother natures reactions to him.
