Line 1: − ''For the [[progressive rock]] band, see [[Muse (band)]]''+ − − The '''Muses''' are a group of nine goddesses in Greek Mythology which are associated with inspiration for those wishing to contribute to the arts. According to [[Hesiod]]'s ''Theogony'', they are the children of [[Zeus]] and Mnemosyne. The Muses do not have direct analogs in Roman Mythology. − − In the arts, a muse can also mean the source of a writer or artist's inspiration, most commonly a [[woman]]. Examples include [[Beatrice]] being [[Dante]]'s muse, and Laura being [[Petrarch]]'s muse. − − ===List of the Muses=== − *[[Calliope]] - epic poetry − *[[Clio]] - history − *[[Erato]] - lyric and love poetry − *[[Euterpe]] - music − *[[Melpomene]] - Tragedy − *[[Polyhymnia]] - Rhetorics − *[[Terpsichore]] - dance − *[[Thalia]] - comedy − *[[Urania]] - Astronomy − − {{Nb mythology greece}} − − [[Category:Muses]]
