He married the goddess Gaia and they had many children: first the titans - six huge giants, then the cyclops (one-eyed monsters), and then three ugly monsters, each with a hundred arms and fifty heads - hecatoncheirs. Uranus greeted the birth of each of his descendants with ever-increasing horror. Looking at them, Uranus was afraid that someday the children would rise up against him and kill him. Therefore, he began to swallow every newborn child, and already grown up he threw into Tartarus - a gloomy Abyss.

Gaia suffered. Then she forged a very strong sickle from iron, which was capable of cutting off any head, and went down with it to Tartarus, where her children languished. Gaia asked her children which of them would dare to rebel against their father, who had imprisoned them in a terrible dungeon. Of all, only the titan Kronos (time) decided to speak. He killed Uranus and took his throne.

Gods of Ancient Greece
Ancient Greece is one of the ancient civilizations. Its culture is also syncretic, like the culture of all. The myths of Ancient Greece, which we now perceive as fairy tales, were the basis of the worldview for the ancient Greek. Unlike the gods ancient egypt, most Greek gods are anthropomorphic. From an ordinary person, they are distinguished only by immortality and magical power. The Greek gods are characterized by quite human weaknesses, such as, for example, envy, jealousy, voluptuousness. It is important, when reading "The Myths of Ancient Greece" by Nicholas Kun, to understand that this book is only a literary interpretation of mythological plots. In fact, it is not given to us to fully understand what role their religious ideas played in the life of the ancient Greeks. The lectures of my beloved site Arzamas dedicated religious ideas of the inhabitants of the ancient Oikumene.
Since the Age of Enlightenment, ancient mythology has become a central theme in the visual arts, and architects design buildings using the Greek order. Gables, friezes of buildings of classicism adorn scenes from Greek myths. Painters dedicate their masterpieces to ancient mythology. Theaters all over the world put on performances, film directors make films based on ancient Greek tragedies and comedies. Myths and legends of Ancient Greece are the ABC of understanding art.
As a kind of epigraph to the first lesson of world artistic culture, dedicated to the topic "The Artistic Culture of Ancient Greece", I propose a small slide show created by me in a simple and very useful program Studio
The Arzamas website has posted a video that will help you get an idea of the history and culture of Ancient Greece in 18 minutes. Undoubtedly, this material does not pretend to become an encyclopedia. ancient Greek history, but its task, as I understand it, is to motivate for a more in-depth study of the material. I highly recommend reading poems "Iliad and Odyssey" by Homer. This is a real encyclopedia in which the relationship of the ancient Greeks with their gods is described vividly, figuratively.
Happy diving into beautiful world Greek art!
