Document Summary
Study guide: clas 203 - l ecture 1. Logos - rational, verifiable account there is no exact definition of the word myth - not necessarily true, rather than a logos. * myth is concerned with the organization of the world, religion, the supernatural, etc. But our definition of religion today isn"t completely translatable back to the era of the ancient greeks. The greeks don"t have just one word to talk about religion. Ancient greek society is not built on religions just as judaism or christianity, so there were no social rules/sin related to sexual activities. They made no clear distinction on concepts such as queer, gay, straight. No concept of sin attached to homosexuality - it was accepted by society, as long as it followed certain societal rules. Deemed normal for men to have wives. Not until the 1970"s that modern scholars started to talk about ancient greek sexuality.
