In Olivia Coolidge's story "Arachne," the main characters include Arachne, a talented and boastful weaver who challenges the goddess Athena, and Athena herself, the goddess of wisdom, craft, and war. Other characters include the minor deities and mortals who witness the weaving contest. Arachne's pride leads to her downfall, resulting in a transformation that highlights themes of hubris and the consequences of defying the gods. The story ultimately explores the relationship between creativity and divine authority.
Arachne's Roman name is still Arachne.
It does vary from myth to myth. But of all other faults, it is Athena's pride that lead to trouble. When Arachne, a beautiful young woman, claimed she could weave as well as Athena could, they had a contest. When Athena won, she turned Arachne into a giant spider for her boastfulness. Arachne may have been boastful, but she did not deserve such a harsh punishment. She is also too cold and calculating. Sometimes she does not seem to care if someone is harmed, or even killed, if it means the fulfillment of her plans. She is quick to judge and punish.
Arachne was a weaver of particular skill.
