Theogony and Works and Days: A New Bilingual Edition

About the author

HESIOD is believed to have lived in the eighth century B.C.E. The Works and Days and the Theogony are ascribed to him, though it is not certain that the same poet wrote both. He is the first poet in Western literature to have written about himself, in this respect distinct from Homer.

KIMBERLY JOHNSON is a professor in the English department at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah.
