/Greek Mythology/

Begin with Edith Wharton imo. End: never.

Just read Edith Hamilton

but for some sources:

The Iliad & Odyssey - Homer
Theogony - Hesiod
The Argonautica - Apollonius
Pretty much every Greek tragedy
The Metamorphoses - Ovid
Life of Perseus - Plutarch

From the small picture I read Baudelaire's book of greek myths. Would have been more interesting.

Foucault's Book of Greek Myths would be the ultimate.

Please don't read a book talking about the myths, just read the primary sources. Read the Iliad and Odyssey, then Hesiod's Theogony, then Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides, the Argonautica, then the major one: Metamorphoses. After that read Seneca.

I would never have expected that someone would make me dislike everything greek, but damn /lit/ did its best with all the memes.
I love the greeks as much as the next guy but you memers made me see it in a different light.

Yeah, I was the first one to make that statement on /his/.

Nice copypasta.
