The Greek poet, Hesiod, stands out as the first personality in European literature. The Theogony contains a genealogy of the gods from the beginning of time and an account of their violent struggles before the present order was established.

Hesiod's poetry is the oldest source of the myths of Prometheus, Pandora, and the Golden Age.

In and of itself, the "Works and Days" is unparalleled in its richness and beauty, easily rivaling Homer.

In Days Gone By, Paul’s poems provide the listener some words to process in a manner that helps to plow through the daily chores of yesteryear until today.

Being a Father is, of course, both a blessing and a burden.
