Episode description

In this bedtime story, I tell you about Greek Mythology around the Trojan War, including the Iliad by Homer. We explore its storylines and numerous characters, from gods like Zeus, Athena, Apollo, Aphrodite and Hera to heroes and other mortals: Menelaus, Agamemnon, Odysseus, Achilles, Ajax, Patroclus, Hector, Priam, Paris, Aeneas, Helen of Troy, and many more. Discover how the feud between gods for Eris' golden apple spilled over to the world of men, and everything that ensued. I also tell you about the Trojan Horse, various other myths, and archaeology: when and how did Greek mythology take shape? Was Troy real? Where is the line between legend and history?
