Book Synopsis The Gods of Greece by : Arianna Stassinopoulos Huffington

Download or read book The Gods of Greece written by Arianna Stassinopoulos Huffington and published by Atlantic Monthly Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The text was originally published with other illustrations in 1983 by Harry N. Abrams Inc. Here it is repackaged with reproductions of over 65 paintings by Francoise Gilot (the paintings were created independently--not expressly for the book). Neither the text nor the artwork are conventional explications of how the gods were understood by the Greeks, but rather, both writer and artist offer personal interpretations of each god's character, power, and meaning.
