Thalia Biography

Thalia
extracted from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia, distributed under the GNU Free Documentation License

Thalia can refer to four distinct entities in Greek mythology, two of whom were daughters of Zeus, and a third of whom bore him sons. The name Thalia, or Thaleia (both pronounced /θəˈlaɪə/) is spelled Θάλεια in Greek and derives from the same stem as θάλλειν "to bloom".

The Muse

Thalia was a rustic goddess, one of the three Graces, and the Muse of comedy and idyllic poetry. In this context, her name means “flourishing,” because the praises in her songs flourish through time.1 Thalia was the daughter of Zeus and Mnemosyne, the eighth-born of the nine Muses. In art, Thalia was portrayed holding a comic mask, a shepherd’s staff, or a wreath of ivy. According to pseudo-Apollodorus, she and Apollo were the parents of the Corybantes.2

  • Thalia was portrayed by Actress Penelope Lagos in the 2008 TV pilot "Muse" written by Rudy Cecera.
  • Thalia was also the main character in Clea Hantman's "Goddesses" series.
  • Thalia also appeared as the short, stout, clumsy Muse in the Walt Disney original movie Hercules
  • Thalia (as one of the Three Graces) is referred to on page 264 of Neal Stephenson's book The Diamond Age
  • Thalia is a demigod in the series Percy Jackson and the Olympians as the daughter of Zeus who is hunted down by Kronos ( Titan of Time). While protecting Luke Castellan, Grover Underwood, and Annabeth Chase, she is turned into a tree by her father Zeus outside of Camp Half-Blood after being felled by a cyclops. Thalia is later expunged out of the tree with the golden fleece in the second book. She goes on a quest with Perseus Jackson(main protagonist), Grover Underwood(satyr) , Zoe Nightshade(lieutenant of Artemis' The Hunt), and Bianca Di Angelo(child of Hades) to save Annabeth from the clutches of the Titans. In the end, she becomes one of Artemis's hunters.
  • Thalia is a book by Arius a Christian theologian who was condemned by the council of Nicea as a heretic then later exonerated only to be condemned again. His teachings that Jesus is of a similar essence to god but was begotten or created by god and was thus lesser formed the basis of the Arian branch of Christianity, leading to one of the earliest and bitterest conflicts within Christianity, the teachings became particularly well supported by Germanic peoples such as the Vandals and Lombards and in parts of the Middle East as well as by Constantine II.
