Season One – Episode Four

“Chaos, Gaia, Tartarus… and above all, Eros.”

In this episode of The Traveller of Myths, we dive into the opening lines of Hesiod’s Theogony. What was Chaos, anarchy, disorder, or something deeper? Was the cosmos constructed, born, or created? The Traveller argues: none of the above. Chaos simply was  the yawning openness from which Gaia, Tartarus, and the binding power of Eros emerged.

From primordial darkness (Nyx and Erebus) to the first unions of Night and Day, we uncover allegories of light, mortality, and the hidden laws of nature. Along the way, Night herself gives birth to Doom, Death, Sleep, Dreams, Deceit, Strife… and even Affection — weaving the algorithms of human fragility.

Expect poetry, philosophy, myth and a few sharp-tongued quarrels between hosts and the enigmatic Traveller, who cannot resist teasing both academics and science.
