Eros: Gods
built 187 days ago
Eros took on other roles in the Great Greco-Roman Soap Opera of the Gods. He was ... the husband of Psyche, Goddess of the Soul. You’ve heard of the Godfather of Soul, James Brown? Well, now you know Psyche, the Goddess of Soul, and Soulmate of Eros.
The power wielded by Eros is made clear in this passage - no one, divine or mortal, could resist his spell of enchantment. In Hesiod's version, therefore, Eros is a potent, irresistible god.

In ancient Greece the word Eros referred to love and the god of love. In his final theory of the drives, Sigmund Freud made Eros a fundamental concept referring to the life instincts (narcissism and object libido), whose goals were the preservation, binding, and union of the organism into increasingly larger units.
