"History of Greece, Volume 01 (of 12)" by George Grote is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This first volume, titled "Legendary Greece," explores the myths and early history of Greece, examining the pantheon of gods and heroes, and their relevance to the Greek cultural and historical narrative. The work aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of ancient Greek civilization, its intellectual achievements, and the foundational myths that shaped early Greek thought. The opening of the historical account establishes the basis for understanding Greek mythology and its integral role in shaping Greek identity. Grote begins by discussing the gods of Greek mythology, detailing their relationships, powers, and functions within the mythic world, and emphasizing how these deities, such as Zeus, Poseidôn, and Hadês, were perceived by the ancient Greeks. He presents the legendary narratives surrounding these gods, particularly the tales of their origin, conflicts, and the broader implications of these stories on the Greek worldview, highlighting their societal and cultural significance while acknowledging the challenges posed by the scant historical evidence from ancient times.
