Taking Pandora and her jar (the box came later) as the starting point, she puts the women of the Greek myths on equal footing with the menfolk.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStories of gods and monsters are the mainstay of epic poetry and Greek tragedy, from Homer to Aeschylus. But modern tellers of Greek myth have usually been men, and have routinely shown little interest in telling women’s stories. And when they do, those women are often painted as monstrous, vengeful or just plain evil. But Pandora – the first woman, who according to legend unloosed chaos upon the world – was not a villain, and even Medea and Phaedra have more nuanced stories than generations of retellings might indicate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter millennia of stories telling of gods and men, be they Zeus or Odysseus, the voices that sing from these pages are those of Hera, Athena and Artemis, and of Clytemnestra, Jocasta, Eurydice and Penelope.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\" lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eForfatter: Natalie Haynes\u003cbr\u003eMål: H: 19,7 cm. x B: 13,1 cm.\u003cbr\u003eSide antal: 320\u003cbr\u003eForlag: Picador\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUdgivet: 2021\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Glyptoteket","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55893036106111,"sku":"104498","price":119.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/7005\/3247\/files\/Pandoras_jar_c61a257f-b9b9-46f8-acd3-1f5ac70e00a1.jpg?v=1758024833","url":"https:\/\/shop.glyptoteket.dk\/products\/pandoras-jar","provider":"Glyptoteket","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
