Prometheus: A Tale of the Human Quest for Enlightenmentby Oles Berdnyk
Translated by Roma Franko, PhD
Published by Language Lanterns Publications
2012, 273 pages
Childhood friends–a beautiful girl of precocious intelligence, and her warrior-protector–travel from ancient Alexandria to classical Athens seeking education. Berdnyk imagines historical character Hypatia, a philosopher in the mid-4th to early-5th century AD, and her companion Isidore, traveling through ancient Greece, India and north Africa, encountering princes, priests, gurus and ascetics. We are immersed in a dazzling array of cultures and world views as we walk with them.
