Orphic Tradition and the Birth of the Gods
Meisner, Dwayne A. (Sessional Lecturer, Sessional Lecturer, Campion College, University of Regina)
Meisner offers a new interpretation of four Orphic theogonies: Derveni, Eudemian, Hieronyman, and Rhapsodic. The fragments of these poems, thought to be written by Orpheus, contained narratives of the creation of the cosmos and the births of the gods, but differed from the mainstream account of Hesiod's Theogony.
