The nine goddesses of the arts are the Muses. Different, ancient authors give different genealogies for the Muses, but currently many people say the Muses are the daughters of Zeus and Mnemosyne, goddess of memory. The nine Muses and their respective realms are:

Calliope: epic poetry

Clio: history

Erato: love or erotic poetry, marriage songs

Euterpe: music, lyric poetry

Melpomene: tragedy

Polyhymnia: sacred music

Terpsichore: choral song and dance

Thalia: comedy

Urania: astronomy
