Dialogues of the Gods
Dialogues of the Gods (Ancient Greek: Θεῶν Διάλογοι) are twenty-five miniature dialogues mocking the Homeric conception of the Greek gods, written in the Attic Greek dialect by the Syrian author Lucian of Samosata. The work was translated into Latin around 1518 by Livio Guidolotto (also called Guidalotto or Guidalotti), the apostolic assistant of Pope Leo X. == The Dialogues == === Dialogue I: Prometheus and Zeus === The titan Prometheus begs the god Zeus to release him from the rock to which he has been chained.
