Muses- 9

[crazyheart]

However, the classical understanding of the muses tripled their triad, and established a set of nine goddesses, who embody the arts and inspire creation with their graces through remembered and improvised song and mime, writing, traditional music, and dance. It was not until Hellenistic times that the following systematic set of functions was assigned to them, and even then there was some variation in both their names and their attributes: Calliope (epic poetry), Clio (history), Euterpe (flutes and lyric poetry), Thalia (comedy and pastoral poetry), Melpomene (tragedy), Terpsichore (dance), Erato (love poetry), Polyhymnia (sacred poetry), Urania (astronomy).

Have been reading a book that poses the question, why isn't art one.

Could there been 10?

Do you have a muse?

ps. how do you edit the tags?

There should be an edit button at the end of the row of tags. However, it may be disabled after 15 min., just as post editing is. If you want changes to the tags, let a mod or admin know and we can fix them.

Some say muse of abstract is not absolute ... so they can't be ... thus mus' ache as mus'IHC in the whine ... some find it a scream ... leads to conviction about BS and thus some really get entangled about it ... an 'Eire experience with the deeps?

That's IDe in the lo' down ... kinda pitty like that dark mustard seed ... sour source of future wisdom? Some say this is a dark peral of wisdom as the convicted can't see discomfort as a mean of learning ... close to a medium that carried intelligence ... a friend lost when consumed in love?
