(Book Three of the series: Greek Myths from Theogony to Plato – An Odyssey in the Ocean of Allegories)

by Tomazo Pagonis

What happens when the age of gods gives way to the age of men?

In this third journey through myth and allegory, the Traveller of the Myths leaves behind Olympus to walk among mortals—those tragic beings who live, suffer, and dream beneath the indifferent gaze of the very gods they themselves imagined.

From the rebirth of humanity after the great flood, to the forging of the Hellenic tribes, and from the dark legend of Lycaon to the haunting myth of Narcissus, Tomazo Pagonis weaves ancient texts, poetic narrative, and philosophical reflection into a timeless odyssey.

On this journey, the Traveller encounters heroes who stand between myth and history: Heracles, the Argonauts, Theseus, Medea, Oedipus, Antigone—and even figures who blur the line between reality and legend, such as Lycurgus of Sparta, Solon of Athens, and Timon the misanthrope.

A book for seekers, philosophers, and all who believe that myths are not merely echoes of the past, but living mirrors of the human soul.
