The earliest long poem with real life as its main content handed down today is Work and Time.

The first real-life poem handed down from ancient Greece was written by hesiod (8th-7th century BC). His main works are Work and Time and Divine Spectrum.

Various religious festivals and auspicious days of different types of work in ancient Greece are recorded in detail. Finally, the poet concluded that in the face of immortal gods, the work of a wise man is blameless, because he knows good omen, so he can avoid committing crimes. This work has an epic genre, but it can actually be said to be a collection of moral aphorisms and an agricultural yearbook. The style is fresh and natural, concise and clear.

The author introduces:

Hesiod (ancient Greece:? σ? οδο? English: hesiod, before the 8th century, was an ancient Greek poet. Originally from Asia Minor, he was born in Askla village in Bisilliat, southern Europe. Since he was a child, he has cultivated his morality for a living. He may have lived in the eighth century.

Since the 5th century, literary historians have been arguing about who lived earlier, Hersius or Homer. Today, most historians believe that Hersius lived before Homer. He is famous for his long poems "Work and Time" and "Divine Spectrum", and is called "the father of Greek Oracle poetry".

Hesiod lived in Pio, and he often went to Mount Helikang, which was recorded as the residence of the muse in Greek mythology. Hesiod himself said that one day when he was herding sheep, the muse gave him the ability to write poems.

Little is known about the details of his life, mostly from his poems. In his poem "Work and Time", he said that he and his brother filed a lawsuit for the inheritance, and he lost (although some scholars think this story is fabricated). After that, I lived a stable and well-off life. He has never traveled far in his life, and he is a smug man. Litigation became a metaphor for moral description in his long poems.
