About The Glory of Hera

The ancient Athenians were quarrelsome as friends treacherous as neighbors brutal as masters faithless as servants shallow as lovers all of which was in part redeemed by their intelligence and creativity Thus writes Philip Slater in this classic work on narcissism and family relationships in fifth century Athenian society Exploring a rich corpus of Greek mythology and drama he argues that the personalities and social behavior of the gods were neurotic and that their neurotic conditions must have mirrored the family life of the people who perpetuated their myths The author traces the issue of narcissism to mother son relationships focusing primarily on the literary representation of Hera and the male gods and showing how it related to devalued women raising boys in an ambitious society dominated by men The role of homosexuality in society fatherless families working mothers women s status and violence male pride and male bonding all these find their place in Slater s analysis so honestly and carefully addressed that we see our own societal dilemmas reflected in archaic mythic narratives all the more clearly Richard P Martin Princeton UniversityOriginally published in 1992 The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print on demand technology to again make available previously out of print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905
