Artemis. The Forces of Nature
Description
Artemis, Apollo's twin sister, was noted for both her beauty and her cruelty. She protected flora and fauna, especially wild animals, and was not reluctant to punish those who acted against nature. In this program, we visit the temple at Brauron, Arcadia, Mount Cithaeron, and other Artemisian haunts, and learn about Artemis' birth and youth. Also told are the stories of Orion, Niobe, Callisto, Echo and Narcissus, and Actaeon.
