Suggested reading

As Hellenimos is a reconstructionisted religion one can hardly practice it without doing some reading. For starters I like to refer you to the interesting works of important ancient authors like Hesiod, Homer, Pausanias, Herodot, Sophokles, Plato, Aristoteles, Saloustios etc. which help us to explore the ancient greek mind best.

If you like to read especially about Greek religion you can go on to the works of some great archaeologists such as:

	Bremmer, Jan N.	„The Early Greek concept of the soul“
	Deubner, Ludwig	„Attische Feste“
	Dodds, E.R.	„The Greeks and the Irrational“
	Kerenyi, Karl	„ The Gods of the Greeks“ „ The Heroes of the Greeks“ „ Prometheus – Archetypal image of human existance“ „ Eleusis – Archetypal image of mother an daughter“ „ Dionysos – Archetypal image of indestructable life“…
	Murray, Gilbert	„Five stages of greek religion“
	Parke, H.W.	„Festival of the Athenians"
	Veyne, Paul	„Did the Greeks Believe in Their Myths?“
Books written by modern Hellenists:
	Alexander, Timothy	„Hellenismos Today“ „A Beginner’s Guide to Hellenismos“ „The Gods of Reason“
	Campbell, Drew	„Old Stones, New Temples“
	Winter, Sarah K.I.	„Kharis – Hellenic Polytheism Explored“
