With Lyre and Bow by Jennifer Lawrence
Far-Shooter. Foreseer. Wolf. Raven. Rat. Swan. Bringer of Health and Plague. Master of Song and Poetry. Lord of Truth and Enlightenment. Olympian God of prophecy and healing, archery and light and music, Apollo was honored throughout the ancient Mediterranean and across the Roman Empire. A paradoxical God, he is associated with both wisdom and virility, with compassion and cruelty, with fatherhood and youth. Twin to the virginal Artemis, he took many mortal lovers, male and female, and sired numerous children - at least one of whom, the healer Asklepios, ascended to godhood himself. Despite the deliberate destruction of His temples, Apollo was never forgotten. Renaissance artists and philosophers found in Him a worthy and willing patron, and in the centuries since his devotees have only grown in number. Among them are the contributors to this anthology, whose poems, essays, artwork, rites, and short fiction celebrate the God in all his wondrous complexity. And so we sing, as they did in ancient days: hail to you, Son of Thunder and Lightning. Io Paean| SKU | Unavailable |
