The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The earliest surviving works of ancient Greek literature, dating back to the early Archaic period, are the two epic poems the Iliad and the Odyssey, set in an idealized archaic past today identified as having some relation to the Mycenaean era.
- These two epics, along with the Homeric Hymns and the two poems of Hesiod, the Theogony and Works and Days, constituted the major foundations of the Greek literary tradition that would continue into the Classical, Hellenistic, and Roman periods.
- The lyric poets Sappho, Alcaeus, and Pindar were highly influential during the early development of the Greek poetic tradition.
