Summary
The Greeks believed that their lives and the natural world were under the control of a number of gods and goddesses. Greeks built temples and performed rituals in honor of these gods. For hundreds of years, Westerners have used Greek literature as the model for their own writings. The earliest of these stories were epics. Aesop's fables are still used today to teach lessons about persistence and patience. Greek playwrights developed two kinds of drama—tragedies and comedies. Greek art and architecture expressed the concepts of harmony and beauty.
