Annotated Bibliography

Containing the Kalon Kakon: The Portrayal of Women in Ancient Greek Mythology – Armstrong Undergraduate Journal of History, http://www.armstrong.edu/history-journal/history-journal-containing-the-kalon-kakon-the-portrayal-of-women-in-ancien.

In this article it talks about how women, in general, were portrayed in Greek mythology. It touches on multiple goddesses such as Pandora, Aphrodite, and Helen of Troy. This article helped me with my Home page and my Female Divine page. I stepped away from Callisto for a minute on my Mythology page and talked about Pandora as the female divine on another page. My Mythology page is the one that shows the use of the website the most I think because it has two pages. Although the Home page is my favorite because it has the history of mythology and why it is important.

The Myths of Ursa Major, The Great Bear, http://www.aavso.org/myths-uma.

This article taught me a new story about Callisto, the Roman version. It is not much different from the version my group presented on but there are some details that differ. I would point out the differences but that is what the page is for! I really enjoyed learning about Callisto and the different stories that she has about her and her son. This also has a very short and condensed version of the Arab story of Callisto but it is to short to really get any information from.

Jr, Bryan N Griffin. “Why Mythology Is Still Important Today.” Parma Observer, http://www.parmaobserver.com/read/2013/02/01/why-mythology-is-still-important-today.

This source seemed the most important to me and helped me a lot with my home page. This article talks about why people should still learn about myths and why they are still important. It relates myths to religion and origin stories, things that I think would really bring people together. This website could make people see that their beliefs all kind of stem from the same story. I really enjoyed making these websites, they were a little painful until I got the handle on how to use the platform.
