Editorial Reviews

" Their exploits were recorded in stories passed down from generation to generation, their images the basis of some of the most beautiful artworks ever created, and their names echo through history to this day. From their mythical home high atop Mount Olympus, the great Greek gods were an integral part of every aspect of life. Explore the fascinating story of these enduring figures in this comprehensive program. Hear from renowned classicists why the Greeks endowed their deities with such human failings, and explore the significance of the most famous myths. See the astonishing artworks that have preserved their images for all time, and how these epic figures have been integrated into modern life. And visit the phenomenal temples that were built in their names, and where the most important rituals of Ancient Greece were carried out. From Aphrodite to Zeus, it's an entertaining and illuminating look at THE GREEK GODS."

I carefully read the reviews of this video and thought it sounded great for my 6th grade students who study Ancient Greece. We do a literature unit on Greek Mythology and this sounded like a good video for the class. It is not! It might be OK for older kids but it really emphasizes the sexual escapades of the Greek Gods. While we are all aware that this is an area of concern this video really plays it up. Teachers beware!

I've seen this documentry on A&E and I was quite impressed at the depth the film attempted to engadge in. The main gods of Greece were explored, but it failed in the respect that many other documentrys have in that the many 'side' gods of Greece were all but ignored. Still, it was quite informative as the gods that were spoken of were covered to the point that you knew their power and influence over a people that worshiped, loved and feared them. I believe it is very interesting how a group of 'imaginary' gods had so much impact on the daily lives of a people that were very influential on modern thought. I highly recommend this video.
