Back to Text List By: Linda Ann Ingram Write us at: raven@qnet.com The Fates The Fates were three Roman goddesses. They were known to the Greeks as the Moerae. Their origins are unknown, but some called them the daughters of night and were the powers which decided what must happen to individuals. The Greeks called them: Clotho (the spinner), Lachesis (the apportioner), and Atropos (the inevitable). One idea is that they spun a lenght of yarn which represented the allotted time for each mortal. Even Zeus, who was the cheif Greek god, was subject to the decisions of the Fates. This placed great importance to both gods and mortals on the importance of oracles, which would reveal the inevitable drift of future events. Table of Contents The Furies In Greek mythology, the Furies were known as the avenging goddesses. They were known as the Erinyes (the angry ones) and were the offspring of Ouranos and Gaia. They were portrayed as extremely ugly women with snakes entwined in their hair, and were unmerciful to any mortal who had wrongly shed blood. One story relates how they relentlessly pursued Orestes, who avenged his father Agamemnon's murder by killing Clytemnestra, his mother. The Furies were persuaded to abandon their pursuit of Orestes after he was aquitted by an ancient Athenian council. The verdict calmed the anger of the Furies and their name was changed to Eumenides (the soothed ones).

One goal is to produce webpages that contain a wide range of links to high-quality images organized around a particular mythical topic. The topics currently available involve the localization of the journeys of the Argo and Odysseus in the real world. Though efforts to trace the "real" places in these mythological tales are often misguided, they are often fascinating in and of themselves. The desire to to link ancient myth to real places tells us much about how myth was received in both the ancient and modern world. As well, it reminds us of the major roles that topography, climate, and locale played in ancient Greek mythology.

51. Classical Mythology In American Life And Literature To 1855
    classical mythology in American Life and Literature to 1855 StepsToward Democratization. This paper was presented at a conference  
    http://www.fivecolleges.edu/mcleary/cmal.html
    
    Extractions: This paper was presented at a conference, "America's Classical Greece," which took place at Boston University, November 12-13, 1993. It was the Third Conference of the International Research and Publication Project, "The Classical Tradition and the Americas," and was sponsored by the Institute for the Classical Tradition, Boston University, the ANRW Research Center, Boston University, and Arbeitsstelle ANRW, University of Tubingen. I have limited my subject today to one facet of classical mythology in Americaits evolution from a specialized body of knowledge only for Greek and Latin initiates into a field of general interest open to all who could read English. I have chosen the word "democratize" to describe this process rather than "popularize," because the former includes the latter, and adds an ethical dimension; to democratize means not only to make something popularly available, but to make it work for social equality and against usurpation by power and wealth. I want particularly to investigate the opening-up of mythology's mysteries to people of both sexes who did not go to secondary school and college, and to women in particularthat is, the groups which did not until the nineteenth century have access to classical languages. That people of color, including African-American slaves, are included here goes without saying. My subject will not includeexcept in necessary references-the teaching of classical mythology in grammar schools and colleges before 1855, as until just a few decades before that date secondary and higher levels of schooling did not include the groups which I have just mentioned. And I will not trace references to classical mythology in belles lettres, as this field, too, was not open to alla major reason, in fact, being the copious mythologicaland other classicalcontent. This, in fact, was the very problem which, in 1855, Thomas Bulfinch (1796-1867), a Harvard-educated Bostonian and civic-minded part-time writer, addressed in his book

    Extractions: OVERVIEW OF THE COURSE: Many of you may feel you already know most of the stories of Greek and Roman mythology: you have read versions of them in storybooks as children, have seen film versions of them ranging from “Clash of the Titans” to Disney’s “Hercules,” and you have become familiar with names such as Zeus, Apollo and Aphrodite from TV’s “Hercules” and “Xena.” In this class, however, you may be surprised by the versions of the myths that you will read and discuss, for the stories we will examine were recorded by the ancient Greeks and Romans and reflect the values and beliefs of their cultures, not ours. Classical mythology is a combination of religious and literary texts and images. The pantheon of gods in classical mythology represents the totality of the cosmos, reflecting both the complexities of human life and the inscrutable forces of nature. The gods were human in appearance and often in behavior, as they quarreled and loved and schemed throughout countless adventures.
