(1) The present day is, in materialistic and socio-psychologic respect, the real (not mythologic) Golden Age of the few, and the Brave New Disposable Plastic World of maybe every third (wellness idolizing recreationists, spooney myths revivifying creationists, designers of catalogue babies, silicone breasts, liposuctionists, and don't-worry-be-a-happy-consumer trash producers).

(2) Is Munch’s Scream Hesiodian?
Yes, it is: [i]
Ὕδρα
Άρπυιαι
γοργόνες
Σθεννω
Μέδουσα
Ευρυαλη
Έρις
Ἐρινύες
Μἐγαιρα
Ἀληκτώ
ἑκατόγχειρες
Keres:
* Anaplekte (Quick,Painful Death),
* Akhlys (mist, that is, of death),
* Nosos (disease),
* Ker (destruction),
* Stygere (hateful).
Hesiod, Theogony...[-substr- said:
