Hesiodi Ascraei Quae Extant is a collection of the extant works of Hesiod, a significant figure in ancient Greek literature. Hesiod, who lived around the same time as Homer, is one of the earliest Greek poets whose work has survived. This volume offers readers access to Hesiod's foundational texts, including "Works and Days" and "Theogony", which provide invaluable insights into early Greek mythology, cosmology, and agricultural life. The collection, edited by notable scholars Georg Pasor, Cornelis Schrevel, and Johann Tobias Krebs, ensures a comprehensive understanding of Hesiod's contributions to Western literature. These poems remain essential reading for anyone interested in classical studies, ancient history, and the roots of European literary tradition.
