Challenges to the Power of Zeus in Early Greek Poetry

Bag om Challenges to the Power of Zeus in Early Greek Poetry

In the earliest extant works of Greek literature, Zeus reigns supreme in the Olympian hierarchy. However, scattered and scanty though they may be, there are allusions to threats of rebellion which challenge Zeus' supremacy. This book examines these passages, drawn from Homer, Hesiod and the "Homeric Hymns", to offer some new interpretations.
