Who were the kings in the mythology of Athens? Why did women lose their right to vote? How did the haircut of Theseus become fashionable in Athens? What is the relationship between stones and democracy? Which mythical king imposed monogamy? What barbarism did sweets replace? When was the first law lesson given in the world? Where did the Lykavittos mountain sprout from?
At the boundaries of our origin, myths teem with life, shining as if present in our time - being themselves outside of time. And the myths of Athens are everywhere, in the names of the city, in its places and monuments, but mainly in the lives of its inhabitants, somewhat imbalanced, a little strange, certainly intoxicating.
The narration of Athens begins from its mythical period, with kings who are half human and half snakes, with unruly heroes, with blasphemous deities, with acts that surpass and undermine the human. These stories - through known and mainly unknown details - are unearthed by the book "Athens - The Mythology of a City" as an opportunity for knowledge, as a testimony of the creation of an eternal archetype, but also as a pleasurable personal reading and reformation of the city's myths.
