Ancient Greek Mythology: Trojan War, Odyssey, Pandora and More Myths | Extended Sleepy Story
May 22, 2024•3 hr 9 min•Ep. 31
Episode description
In this soft-spoken bedtime story, I tell you about various Greek myths. This is a compilation episode, in which I've combined multiple prior episodes into one long-play episode to help you fall asleep. These are the Greek myths we will discover tonight.
- The Trojan War, as told in Homer's Iliad and other sources;
- The Odyssey, also mainly based on Homer's work;
- Pandora and her jar (or box), which according to Hesiod contained countless plagues that she let escape, providing a backstory for the existence of suffering in human life;
- The tragedy of the Danaïdes and Sisyphus, who were sentenced to an eternity of useless work;
- Icarus, the young man who flew too close to the sun and fell.
