Liv Reads Hesiod: The Theogony (Part 2)

Liv Albert
About this episode

Liv reads Hesiod's Theogony! The Theogony is the oldest surviving source for the beginning of the ancient Greek world. Liv has referenced it, a lot, but now she's reading it for you! Translated by HG Evelyn-White.

This is not a standard narrative story episode, it's simply a bonus reading of Homer. For regular episodes look for any that don't have "Liv Reads..." in the title!
