Liv Reads the Iliad: Book One

Let's Talk About Myths, Baby! Greek & Roman Mythology Retold - A podcast by Liv Albert and iHeartPodcasts

Categories:

Liv reads Book One of the Iliad, translated into prose by Samuel Butler. This is not a standard episode, it's simply a reading of the Iliad. For regular episodes look for any that don't have "Liv Reads the..." in the title!

Here's a list Greek to Roman names to help you out:

Zeus = Jove/Jupiter

Hera = Juno

Athena = Minerva/Pallas Minerva

Ares = Mars

Aphrodite = Venus

Poseidon = Neptune

Hades = Pluto

Hermes = Mercury (I believe technically it's the character of Iris in the Greek, but this translated chose to use Mercury, a man, weird)

Kronos = Saturn

Odysseus = Ulysses (I think he's the only mortal with a name change, the Romans were weird)

(Not Latin, but Achaeans/Danaans = Greeks, Ilius = Troy)
