Hesiod, from Cyme. As a youth, he was brought up by his father Dius and his mother Pycimede in Boeotian Ascra. He is said in genealogies to be the son of Dius, the son of Apelles, the son of Melanopus, who some say is the grandfather of Homer the founding father, making Hesiod and Homer first cousins once removed and each a descendant of Atlas. His poems are as follows: Theogony, Works and Days, Shield, Catalogue of Female Heroines in five books, Dirge for a certain Batrachus, his lover, Concerning the Idaean Dactyls, and many others. He died while a guest of Antiphus and Ctimenus, who, by night, thinking that they were killing their sister’s seducer, killed Hesiod unintentionally. According to some he was older than Homer, according to others, a contemporary. Porphyry and most others judge him to be younger by a hundred years, so that he would precede the first Olympiad by only thirty-two years.
