Aphrodite Against Artemis: A Tragedy is a play written by Thomas Sturge Moore and published in 1901. The play is set in ancient Greece and tells the story of a conflict between the goddesses Aphrodite and Artemis. Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, is angered when a young woman named Callisto rejects her advances and instead devotes herself to Artemis, the goddess of the hunt. In retaliation, Aphrodite curses Callisto, causing her to be transformed into a bear. The play follows the tragic consequences of this conflict, as Callisto’s fate is intertwined with that of the mortal man who loves her. With themes of love, jealousy, and revenge, Aphrodite Against Artemis is a classic tragedy that explores the power of the gods and the consequences of defying them.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
