Description
Summary:This paper aims to discuss the variety of textual and other evidence for the myth of Andromeda at Iope. Providing a detailed compilation of the relevant material, it sets out to investigate the compound factors that may have helped to shape the various versions of the story. A focus on this specific case study, in particular with regard to the tale’s location at Iope, will lead to further recognition of the way in which the multifarious information presented in the ancient sources reflects a constantly developing perception of the mythological past.
