About the author
Hesiod
Among the earliest Greek poets whose work still survives, this storyteller helped shape the way later generations imagined the gods, work, and justice. His poems blend myth with practical advice, giving readers both a creation story and a vivid glimpse of everyday life in ancient Greece.
