Dioses, diosas y diositos de la mitolog?a griega Hubo un tiempo en que los grandes h?roes no eran s?per, si no mucho m?s, donde Dios no era ?nico, pero se le consideraba m?s cercano, donde el derecho a ser Dios se heredaba por l?nea sangu?nea de un tal Zeus, un tiempo donde la tauromaquia se limitaba a la isla de Minos, y donde las grandes epopeyas las escrib?a Homero.En ese tiempo, donde no se pod?a consultar internet, todo se explicaba por la labor divina, desde la guerra a la medicina, desde la suerte a la muerte, todo pod?a ser explicado por la acci?n de los dioses, las diosas y los diositos de la mitolog?a hel?nica.Los dioses griegos tuvieron sus correspondencia en el Imperio Romano, a muchos de ellos los conocer?s por otros nombres, puede que incluso los vikingos heredaran algunos de esos dioses, sus mitos y sus leyendas.En este libro damos conocer los grandes nombres de la Grecia cl?sica, desde Apolo a Atenas, pasando por Zeus o Hermes, present?ndolos y d?ndolos a conocer como ya hiciera Farnell el siglo pasado.

Aunque los dioses y diosas griegos eran seres inmortales y poderosos, estos eran muy similares a los humanos que los adoraban. Los dioses y diosas sufren ataques de celos, se enamoran, se enfadan cuando se sienten engañados, y otorgan bendiciones cuando son honrados.

Existió un período de transición entre la era en que los dioses vivían solos y la era en que la participación divina en los asuntos humanos era limitada. Fue durante este período cuando los dioses y los mortales interactuaron. Los grupos se mezclaron más libremente en esos primeros días del globo que después. La mayoría de estas historias fueron contadas posteriormente en las Metamorfosis de Ovidio, y con frecuencia se agrupan en dos grupos temáticos: historias de amor e historias de castigo. El incesto, o la seducción o violación de una mujer mortal por un dios masculino, da como resultado una descendencia heroica en muchas historias de amor. Las relaciones entre dioses y mortales a menudo están mal vistas en las leyendas, e incluso las relaciones consentidas rara vez terminan felizmente. En casos selectos, como en el Himno homérico a Afrodita, donde la diosa se acuesta con Anquises para dar a luz a Eneas, una divinidad femenina se aparea con un hombre mortal.

This first English translation makes avail­able to English-speaking readers a power­ful modern Mexican novel, first published in 1961. Fernando Benítez, well-known Mexican author, journalist, and winner of Mexico's 1968 best-book award, exploits a true but little-known incident by build­ing it into a tightly structured, tense, and tragic novel of social protest. The incident on which the novel is based is a bloody rebellion against the village feudal master touched off by joking comment on the "poisoning" of the water as one of Don Ulises's men is pushed into the plaza fountain. Feed­ing on itself, the rumor spreads that the "boss" has poisoned the local spring, and rebellion follows, with its violent and unforeseen consequences. The result is a frightening look at one of Mexico's major social problems and glaring ironies--that over fifty years after a revolution fought by the peasant and for the peasant, most rural groups are still living below the national economic standard.
