How were you introduced to Greek Mythology and who are your favorite characters?
HOWDY ummm…. my first encounter with greek mythology…Im pretty sure I was a kid. Disney’s Hercules probably sparked an initial interest? Then I think it was a social studies class in elementary school, where we talked about ancient Greece for a bit. But it REALLY popped off for me when I read The Iliad in high school for a class!
My favorite was probably Hector back then? HAGjgsj i still really love him. i really had a soft spot for Menelaus, and I thought Diomedes was cool! I like Achilles, ofc. My favorite now though is (gestures vaguely at my blog) Patroclus. No contest.
In terms of the gods, Hades and Persephone have always been my all time favorites. Which is maybe cliche to say? But I can’t help it kjhfdskd
