Book excerpt: Hercules was the son of Zeus, the chief god of the ancient Greeks, and a mortal woman. He had a reputation for great strength. This strength was apparent even as an infant, when he strangled two large snakes. His strength also landed him in trouble. In a fit of madness caused by Hera, he killed his wife and sons. For his punishment, he had to serve his cousin Eurystheus. Eurystheus was afraid of Hercules and wanted him to be killed, so he ordered Hercules to do twelve labors. Though these labors were very dangerous, Hercules accomplished them all. Even though the labors had been completed, Hercules kept getting into trouble. Finally his luck ran out. His mortal part, which he had from his mother, died. He was changed into an immortal and joined the other gods and goddesses on Mt. Olympus.

Book Herakles

    Book Details:
  • Author : Emma Stafford
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2013-06-17
  • ISBN : 1136519270
  • Pages : 338 pages

Download or read book Herakles written by Emma Stafford and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is more material available on Herakles than any other Greek god or hero. His story has many more episodes than those of other heroes, concerning his life and death as well as his battles with myriad monsters and other opponents. In literature, he appears in our earliest Greek epic and lyric poetry, is reinvented for the tragic and comic stage, and later finds his way into such unlikely areas as philosophical writing and love poetry. In art, his exploits are amongst the earliest identifiable mythological scenes, and his easily-recognisable figure with lionskin and club was a familiar sight throughout antiquity in sculpture, vase-painting and other media. He was held up as an ancestor and role-model for both Greek and Roman rulers, and widely worshipped as a god, his unusual status as a hero-god being reinforced by the story of his apotheosis. Often referred to by his Roman name Hercules, he has continued to fascinate writers and artists right up to the present day. In Herakles, Emma Stafford has successfully tackled the ‘Herculean task’ of surveying both the ancient sources and the extensive modern scholarship in order to present a hugely accessible account of this important mythical figure. Covering both Greek and Roman material, the book highlights areas of consensus and dissent, indicating avenues for further study on both details and broader issues. Easy to read, Herakles is perfectly suited to students of classics and related disciplines, and of interest to anyone looking for an insight into ancient Greece’s most popular hero.
