you can also have a look into Hesiod - he wrote Theogany which outlined the generations of the gods. (not a difficult text to read)wccchick said:I am looking for sources from ancient greece to do with myths and legends!
do you know of any that could be helpful?
please help!
wccchick!
Ovid also wrote a heap of myths and legends. We had to use his metamorphoses collection for uni last year
have a look at Bill Thayers Website for a list of texts - you should be able to find links to a heap of texts for myths and legends http://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/home.html
