33. Hesiod (ca. 700 BC) -- From Eric Weisstein's World Of Scientific Biography
    Hesiod (ca. 700 BC), Greek Theogeny. Hesiod s explanations of how the gods came about was probably derived from Near Eastern (Babylonian) lore.  
    http://scienceworld.wolfram.com/biography/Hesiod.html
    
    Extractions: Greek philosopher who described his cosmology and cosmogony in the Theogeny . Hesiod's explanations of how the gods came about was probably derived from Near Eastern (Babylonian) lore. He created a family tree of gods in which Chaos (the yawning gap) produced Erebus (the Abyss) and Night, who produced Aether and Day. At the same time, Earth produced the Heavens, Mountains, and Sea. The Heavens and Earth then produced Cronos. He also divided the universe into Heaven, Aether, Earth, Erebus, Tartarus, and surrounded it by the Ocean. The difference in levels between Earth and Heaven was called Chaos.

    http://alexm.here.ru/mirrors/www.enteract.com/jwalz/Eliade/059.html
    
    Extractions: Theogony, The main themes of Hesiod's 'Theogony' are (1) the coming into being of Chaos (the Void), Earth, Eros, Sky and the first generation of gods (lines 116-53); (2) the castration of Sky by his son Cronus, instigated by his mother Earth (lines 154-210); (3) Zeus' escape from being swallowed by his father Cronus (lines 453-500); (4) the victorious battle of Zeus and the Olympian gods against the Titans (lines 617-735). Only the first two episodes are printed below. It is impossible to determine Hesiod's date, but he is later than Homer, probably eighth century B.C. The similarities to and differences from the Ancient Near East cosmogonies are discussed by Norman 0. Brown in the introduction to his translation, 'Hesiod's Theogony,' PP. 36 ff. Earth also gave birth to the violent Cyclopes-Thunderer, Lightner, and bold Flash-who made and gave to Zeus the thunder and the lightning bolt. They were like the gods in all respects except that a single eye stood in the middle of their foreheads, and their strength and power and skill were in their hands. There were also born to Earth and Sky three more children, big, strong, and horrible, Cottus and Briareus and Gyes. This unruly brood had a hundred monstrous hands sprouting from their shoulders, and fifty heads on top of their shoulders growing from their sturdy bodies. They had monstrous strength to match their huge size.

This was the rough cut, he indicated, still highly classified and not cleared for public release. The CIA wanted to reserve on what would be revealed to protect sources and detection methods if there was no military conflict. When McLaughlin concluded, there was a look on the president's face of, What's this? And then a brief moment of silence. "Nice try," Bush said.

    http://www.kat.gr/kat/history/Greek/Tc/Hesiod.htm
    
    Extractions: Hesiod, fl. c. 700 BC Greek HESIODOS, Latin HESIODUS one of the earliest Greek poets, often called the "father of Greek didactic poetry." Two of his complete epics have survived, the Theogony , relating the myths of the gods, and the Works and Days , describing peasant life. Not a great deal is known about the details of Hesiod's life. He was a native of Boeotia, a district of central Greece to which his father had migrated from Cyme in Asia Minor. Hesiod may at first have been a rhapsodist (a professional reciter of poetry), learning the technique and vocabulary of the epic by memorizing and reciting heroic songs. He himself attributes his poetic gifts to the Muses, who appeared to him while he was tending his sheep; giving him a poet's staff and endowing him with a poet's voice, they bade him "sing of the race of the blessed gods immortal." That his epics won renown during his lifetime is shown by his participation in the contest of songs at the funeral games of Amphidamas at Chalcis on the island of Euboea. This, he says, was the only occasion on which he crossed the sea, but it is not likely to have been the only invitation he received from places other than his hometown of Ascra, near Mount Helicon. Hesiod's authorship of the Theogony has been questioned but is no longer doubted, though the work does include sections inserted by later poets and rhapsodists. The story of Typhoeus' rebellion against Zeus was almost certainly added by someone else, while the somewhat overlapping accounts of Tartarus, the hymn on Hecate, and the progeny of the sea monster Keto are highly suspect. The discovery of a Hurrian theogony similar to Hesiod's seems to indicate that Hesiod's theogony owes significant episodes to Middle Eastern models. Nonetheless, the Uranus-Cronus-Zeus succession as told by Hesiod approximates the pattern of a classical Greek tragic trilogy. Thus, the Erinyes (the deities of vengeance) are born when Uranus is overthrown by Cronus, while their own hour for action comes when Cronus is about to be overthrown by Zeus. These and other similar features plausibly represent Hesiod's own contributions to the inherited story.
