Greek Mythology An Introduction

What is Greek Mythology? O Greek Mythology is a collection of myths and legends that Greeks use to explain their world (Explaining in the unexplainable) O Although these stories are now viewed as fiction, the ancient Greeks believed them to be true

The Greeks & Their Beliefs O The Greeks were a tough, restless, ambitious, hard-living, and imaginative race O They loved life! O They believed in living life to the fullest, because they understood that death was going to happen whether you wanted it to or not O Their response to death? Make your mark in life. Be a legend. Be a hero.

The Greeks & Their Beliefs O The Greeks has many gods O The Olympian gods resembled the Greeks need to be legendary O God’s were not perfect. They were flawed like “regular” humans O In many cases, the gods were vengeful, jealous, and unforgiving. O Despite character flaws, the gods were displayed as strong and beautiful O The same traits, both good and bad, apply to the characters in their myths

Mythology and Art O Mythology heavily influenced art, and that continues today

Modern Expressions? O We get many of our modern phrases from mythology. “He holds the weight of the world on his shoulders” O What might this mean?

The Story of Atlas O The Olympian gods and the Titans were fighting. Atlas sided with the Titans. When they lost, Zeus forced Atlas to stand at the western edge of earth and hold up the sky on his shoulders.
