Greta Hawes is a scholar of Greek myth in its ancient contexts. She is the author of Rationalizing Myth in Antiquity (OUP, 2014) and editor of Myths on the Map: the Storied Landscapes of Ancient Greece (OUP, 2017).

By following Hawes on "a journey—or, rather, the very act of journeying—through the southern and central Greek mainland with a curious narrator who fixes the conceptual world of myth onto the realia of the Imperial landscape" (1), we can arrive at a far better sense of "how Greek storytelling worked" (2). Through Pausanias we can see Greek myth as not "a singular, abstract system" but one rooted "in time and to place".
