Kalliope (Calliope in Latin) is the eldest sister of the nine Muses, known as Musa in Greek mythology. She governs over heroic poetry, is the daughter of Zeus and Mnemosyne, and always carries a writing tablet with her. She is also Orpheus' mother.

I have no idea of the historical background, to tell you the truth. XD but that's interesting. I wonder if the novel has some connection to that?

From what I could make out of the novel, it is based on an actual Greek myth, about a singing competition between the nine Muses and the nine Pierides, who were beautiful but presumptuous princesses. In the end the nine Pierides lost to the nine Muses, and were turned into birds as a punishment for their arrogance.

I see. that is interesting. now I'm even more curious to know the novel.
