In this Introductory episode on a new series, I delve into the intricate evolution of our perception of muses, focusing particularly on the ancient Greek Nine Muses. I challenge traditional notions, questioning the gendered and divine characteristics attributed to muses, while reflecting on their absence in certain artistic domains. Tracing historical references from Homer to Shakespeare, I examine how various artists invoked muses through history. The podcast explores the challenges of preserving art forms like painting and music, discussing Plato's skepticism and the role of memory or Mnemosyne, who is the mother of the muses.
