Sinopse

Step into the earliest foundations of Greek myth and moral thought with The Works of Hesiod, presented here in a clear, resonant audiobook narration by Adultbrain. Written in the 8th–7th century BCE, Hesiod’s poems stand beside Homer as cornerstones of Western literature, blending myth, cosmology, ethics, and heroic tradition. 
Theogony 
An epic account of the origins of the universe and the genealogy of the gods. From Chaos to Gaia, from the Titans to the Olympians, Theogony traces the rise of Zeus and the divine order, offering a powerful vision of cosmic structure, authority, and mythic conflict. 
Works and Days 
Part moral instruction, part farming calendar, part mythological reflection, Works and Days is a deeply human poem. Addressed to Hesiod’s brother, it explores justice, labor, seasonal rhythms, and the hardships of mortal life, while recounting enduring myths such as Pandora and the Ages of Man. 
Shield of Heracles 
A vivid heroic poem centered on Heracles and his battle with the monster Cycnus. Best known for its rich and detailed description of Heracles’ shield, this work showcases early Greek epic artistry and the transition from mythic genealogy to heroic narrative. 
This audiobook is ideal for listeners who enjoy:

Foundational texts of Western philosophy and literature 
Thoughtful, atmospheric narration suited for study or immersive listening
