 | | Hesiod and his neighbors are engaging in trade only opportunistically and then only to aid their subsistence economy. | | | Yet E does not deny that Hesiod's ideals later held appeal to the Classical mesoi; indeed, the democratic ideology of the Classical mesos adopted and preserved the values and egalitarianism of the village. | | | Autonomy is certainly possible, but E has not fully dispelled the prevailing scholarly view that Hesiod's village has already been conquered by Thespiai. |

| | Hesiod as Precursor to the Presocratic Philosophers |
| | In the fifth century one of the great tasks of philosophy before Socrates and Plato was to come to terms with the sundering of being from the alleged illusion of becoming advanced in the speculation of Parmenides. | | | That is the element of theogonic speculation that can be transferred from the organization of the polytheistic myth to nonmythical speculations on order. | | | Hesiod offered no theory of the hyle or matter of being. |

| | West (1966) implies the latter is correct by citing a similar passage in Odyssey 10.553 (of Elpenor, who lacked it), and this meaning is given by West (1988), Frazer and Athanassakis, as opposed to Evelyn-White, Lombardo, Wender, and Lattimore. | | | This is a particularly delicate topic in a modern context, as Athanassakis reveals when he also admits "Hesiod's obvious misogyny" (90). | | | This plain voice is a popular voice: " He spoke for the people, but was not of the poorest class" (5). |

| | When reading Hesiod's Theogony, some have understood that Gaia 'came after Chaos' in the sense that Gaia is the offspring of Chaos, whereas others think she just appeared after Chaos. | | | Nyx and Erebus remain the undisputed offspring of Chaos. | | | Hesiod does not mention her by name in the Theogony. |

| | Hesiod's claim in the "Works and Days" is modest, since he neither pretends to have met Homer, nor to have sung in any but an impromptu, local festival, so that the supposed interpolation lacks a sufficient motive. | | | Secondly, Hesiod claims that his father -- if not he himself -- came from Aeolis and settled in Boeotia. | | | Hesiod's charm lies in his child-like and sincere naivete, in his unaffected interest in and picturesque view of nature and all that happens in nature. |

| | According to Hesiod, then, Earth could be said to be the centre of the Universe and the matter by which the other bodies were formed. | | | However, while Hesiod is thought to have written in the 8th century B.C., material that he had gathered together for his work had originated millennia earlier so that the cosmogony preserved in his writing is more or less a summation of far more ancient observations. | | | Some historians and writers say that Hesiod copied Orpheas, and his Cosmogony-Theogony is based on Orpheas' ideas. |

| | Hesiod - Columbia Encyclopedia article about Hesiod |
| | Homer and Hesiod codified and preserved the myths of many of the Greek gods of the classical pantheon. | | | The Boeotians, people of the class of which Hesiod represents himself to be the type, were essentially unromantic; their daily needs marked the general limit of their ideals, and, as a class, they cared little for works of fancy, for pathos, or for fine thought as such. | | | Now of these two societies the domestic is the first, and Hesiod is right when he says, "First a house, then a wife, then an ox for the plough," for the poor man has always an ox before a household slave. |
