Manage episode 214638615 series 2416700
Join us for another stop on our mythological tour of the solar system as we visit Saturn! This gas giant, featuring 53 moons and multiple rings, is named after the Roman god Saturn, (Kronos) the father of Jupiter (Zeus). We'll examine how the Romans and Greeks depicted Saturn/Kronos in different ways.
This week’s passages are from Hesiod "Theogony"; Virgil "Aeneid"; Ovid "Metamorphoses."
