Description
As all roads lead to Rome, so the sources of European culture lie in Ancient Greece. Its legends and myths will tell you about mighty Zeus and beautiful Aphrodite, about brave Apollo and Pygmalion, who fell in love with his own creation, about the warrior Athena-Pallas and King Midas, who turned everything into gold. Olympus, the Argonauts, and Troy will come alive before your eyes, reminding you again of eternal values and unanswered questions of existence. Oh, eternal gods, and you, golden Aphrodite! If you can give everything to the one who prays, then give me a wife as beautiful as that statue of a girl made by me myself!…
“Midas plucks an apple— the apple turns to gold, as if it were from the garden of the Hesperides. Midas rejoices. Servants prepare him a sumptuous feast, and happy Midas reclines at the table. And then he understood what a terrible gift he had asked Dionysus for: with a single touch of Midas, everything turned into gold. Golden things were his bread and his mouth, his food and his wine.
