Aphrodite

This booklet presents a thoroughly researched account of the exploits of Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love, including an annotated bibliography and photographs of authentic artwork. Aphrodite rose from the sea during the third generation of immortal gods. Her gentle mission began humbly but soon embraced all living things ... humans, beasts, and divinities. Aphrodite assumes many personas--mother, lover, wife--but her essence is always one of tenderness and affection. She assisted Jason and the Argonauts in their Quest for the Golden Fleece and was wounded while fighting in the Trojan War.
