This course was a great systematic look at the myths of the Greeks using classical texts. Easy to understand, yet not just simple "storytelling". ( ) Modern Scholar is one of my favorite imprints from Recorded Books (I am sad that they are discontinuing it). I listened to this with my 12 year old daughter to help her plan for a project she is doing for one of her classes. I learned quite a bit that was new to me (re-learned items that I had evidently learned incorrectly in the past) and my daughter got some great notes for her project. It's not a stuffy, boring lecture. Meineck does a great job of keeping things upbeat and highlighting the more interesting aspects. Is this good for a doctoral dissertation on the intricacies of Greek Mythology? Absolutely not - but it's not intended to be. Simply interesting enrichment geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Modern Scholar (058)
Professor Peter Meineck examines in detail the far-reaching influence of Greek myths on Western thought and literature. The nature of myth and its importance to ancient Greece in terms of storytelling, music, poetry, religion, cults, rituals, theatre, and literature are viewed through works ranging from Homer's Illiad and Odyssey to the writings of Sophocles and Aeschylus. These lectures are an entertaining guide to Greek mythology and a fascinating look into the culture and time that produced these eternal tales. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
