How Did Art And Culture Influence Greek Culture

All in all, the characters, stories, themes and lessons of Greek mythology have shaped art and literature for thousands of years in the society. The substantial influence of Greek Mythology on the world’s culture and historic heritage is undeniable, since, till today, philosophers, artists and scholars are trying to explain the world and its ethics based on parts of the Greek mythology. All of these myths are part of our present and past cultural traditions in many ways, they define who and what a culture is. Without mythology, our history as a human race and indeed our present time would be less rich in term of a common set of symbols for complex human actions and emotions and a set of symbols that stretches across many cultures and time periods.
