New & Ancient Greek Tales

Aphrodite, stereotype or feminist icon? An awesome new title exploring identity, mythology and stereotypes.

Aphrodite is a celebrated figure deeply connected with beauty, sexuality and love in ancient myth – but do we really know who she is and what she stands for? A captivating Greek goddess, who according to popular myth was born from sea foam, she is as fascinating now as she was then to both Gods and mortals. A powerful, multifaceted woman with a story as deep as the ocean from which perhaps she came, she is often erroneously presented as a fertility goddess, but she is certainly sensual, sexual and even maternal. Created through open submissions and supported by an extensive introduction examining the origins of Aphrodite, is a wonderful new book in the best tradition of Flame Tree's collectable hardcover editions.

Introductory essay by Stephanie Budin, and foreword by Anja Ulbrich. The modern authors whose stories feature in this book are: Benjamin Cyril Arthur, Bernice Arthur, Andrea Modenos Ash, Angelina Chamberlain, C.B. Channell, Ev Datsyk, Voss Foster, Luna C. Galindo, Ali Habashi, Xoe Juliani, Vanessa Ziff Lasdon, Russell Hugh McConnell, Melody E. McIntyre, Fiona Mossman, Noah Ross, Zach Shephard, and Lauren Talveryn.
