Zeus and Ganymede The real Greek myth

  • 14 years ago
Men who love are Gods, their friendship is the road to Heaven. Uncensored now for the first time since antiquity, this is the message that the original myth of Zeus and Ganymede communicated to its hearers more than two thousand years ago. It is an example of the ancient teachings on love that guided males towards a love that was ethical as well as passionate..... "A truly fine piece of work" — Sir Derek Jacobi (commenting on the narration).....
"It is a work of great devotion, and scholarly as well." — Vern Bullough .....
The myth of Zeus and Ganymede has many identities, one of which is an ancient Cretan teaching myth, showing the way to an honorable love between males. The power of love raises the beloved to the level of his more experienced lover, and confirms his manhood.
Based on the best-selling book "Lovers' Legends: The Gay Greek Myths"
