summary: hesiod, who lived in boeotia in the late eighth century bc, is one of the oldest known, and possibly the oldest of greek poets. Hesiod's theogony contains a systematic genealogy of the gods from the beginning of the world and an account of the struggles of the titans. In contrast, works and days is a compendium of moral and practical advice on husbandry, and throws unique and fascinating light on archaic greek society.

as well as offering the earliest known sources for the myths of pandora, prometheus and the golden age, hesiod's poetry provides a valuable account of the ethics and superstitions of the society in which he lived.

unlike homer, hesiod writes about himself and his family, and he stands out as the first personality in european literature. Bu yeni çeviri, hesiod'un şiirleri konusunda önde gelen bir uzman tarafından yapılmış olup, doğrulukla okunabilirliği bir araya getirmektedir.

it is accompanied by an introduction and explanatory notes.
