    I do not know if Hesiod was real or not, but he definetely self-inserted in those poems. Classic.

    Wait I'm a bit confused. What is Hesiod's father's name? Are they both named Hesiod?

    As far as I know, his father's name is uknown, since Hesiod doesn't mention it in his poems. Hesiod's father had two sons, Hesiod and Perseus.
