Posted byTriumvir ClioPosted inGreek Myth, The Greeks

In this episode, we review #14 of the Homeric Hymns: Hymn to the Mother of the Gods.

Discussion Prompts
  1. AP Credit: Which goddess is this hymn dedicated to? Why?
  2. What does the Mother of the Gods’s association with nature and wild animals say about the role of women and mortal mothers?

I have a BA in History and Classical Civilization from Loyola University Chicago and an MPH from Western Michigan University. I've been a geometry teacher, a religion teacher, a writing tutor. I'm a writer, a knitter, a dancer, a singer, an actor. And, yes, for fun I like to reread everything that was assigned while getting my classics degree.
