    http://www.tcd.ie/Classics/courses/jfmyth.html
    
    Extractions: Dr Christine Morris (HT; TT) Course Description What is myth? How do myths deal with fundamental human concerns about who we are and the world we live in? What is the relationship between myth and religion? Why did the Greeks and Romans worship many gods, believe in oracles, or perform animal sacrifice? This course is an introduction to the major myths and religions of the classical world using the full range of primary source material: literary, artistic and archaeological. It explores the functions of myth within society and the various theories of myth. The first half of the course will focus on themes such as the creation myths in the wider context of Near Eastern mythology, the character of the Olympian gods, heroes and their monstrous opponents, divine-human relations, and the major mythic cycles of the Trojan war, and the Atreus and Theban sagas. The second half of the course will explore the nature of Greek and Roman religion in its social context. It considers key elements of ritual action: sacrifice, rites of passage, festivals, as well as the diverse ancient beliefs on death and the afterlife and the role of mystery religions. Course Aims To become familiar with the main characters, stories and themes of classical myths

    Extractions: ANGERONA Goddess of secrecy. Angerone is portrayed with her mouth bound and sealed, her finger raised to her mouth in a gesture of warning. The ancients thought names powerful; the commonly known name of an individual or a community was often not the real name at all, the real name being a closely guard secret. Very probably the cult of Angerona guarded the secret name of the city of Rome. Little else is known of her. ATTIS A god of vegetation, similar to Tammuz and Adonis. Imported together with his mother Cybele from Persia. Driven mad by the deranged love of his mother, Attis castrated himself under a pine tree. Attis' priests were eunuchs. BELLONA War goddess. Bellona's priests were recruited from the gladiators, and emissaries were received at her temple. CYBELE An Asian goddess adopted by the Greeks and Romans. A healer, mistress of fertility and untamed nature, a protector in war. Cybele is always accompanied by two lions. Cybele granted immortality to those who worshipped her. Cybele's priests danced wildly and mutilated themselves. Her festivals, held at the beginning of spring, were occasions for wild orgies. FAUNA Goddess of fertility. Fauna's festival, which seems to have been quite an orgy, was open only to women, being strictly forbidden to men.

    Extractions: Zeus and Thetis by Ingres (1811) Perhaps the most widely studied and popular of all mythologies is the mythology of the Classical Age. The deities of ancient Greece and Rome have become an enduring part of all school curriculum, and the Public Library has a variety of books which delve into this area. In addition to Edith Hamilton's and Bulfinch's works, The Illustrated Dictionary of Greek and Roman Mythology is an excellent reference source. Gods and Goddesses of Ancient Greece offers a comprehensive "family tree" of the Olympian deities. Other books of interest include: An Outline of Classical Mythology and The Nature of Greek Myths . Michael Macrone's By Jove! (Brush Up Your Mythology) is a humorous retelling of the Greek myths and is well-worth a look. The Internet also offers a wealth of impressive Classical Mythology sites. From Sweden, Carlos Parada's Greek Mythology Links is an amazing site offering information on all aspects of Greek Mythology. Especially impressive is the sites' Trojan War link, which not only gives an overview of the Trojan War, but includes

    Extractions: Roman and Greek mythology was closely related. Many of the Gods, Goddessses, and heroes in the Roman myths were almost identical to those of the Greeks. Rome was probably most famous for its rise to power from a small pastorial settlement to perhaps one of the largest, most successful empires in history. Since the Greeks came before the Romans it was natural progression thay many of the greek tales and heroes would find their way into Roman mythology. While the Greeks excelled in literature, philosophy, science and the arts, the Romans would leave their mark in history in the fields of industry, warfare and goverment. The Roman myths as well as the Greek myths mirrored our modern day soap operas. Within these tales one would find love, fidelity, disloyalty, incest, theft and many more of the elements that make our modern day TV epics. As similar as the Greek and Roman myths were, the names of the characters was almost always changed. The Greek's Aphrodite would be the equivelent to the Roman's Venus and Hephaestus would be changed to Vulcan for the Roman myth version. Pan would be one of the few Gods whose name would not change from culture to culture. The tales of Janus and Romulus and Remus were entirely from Roman origins.

    Extractions: By RUNOKO RASHIDI T According to Homer, "To Troy no hero came of nobler line, Or if nobler, Memnon, it was thine." In more recent times (late in the nineteenth century), Dr. Rufus Lewis Perry pronounced that: "The distinguished Cushite whom Homer calls Memnon came and went like a meteor in the galaxy of illustrious Ethiopian monarchs. But the poet in classic song and the historian in legendary tradition, have preserved enough of his brightness to indicate his rank and power among the contemporary potentates of the earth. He was king of the Ethiopians. He fought against the Greeks in the Trojan war; and after he had slain Antilochus, son of Nestor, was killed by Achilles." Dr. Perry concluded that, "Through slain by Achilles, Memnon is so embalmed in verse and prose by Homer, Hesiod, Virgil and others, that his name will last as long as the writings of these imperishable authors."

    Extractions: Mercury: Mercury was the son of Jupiter, the king of the gods, and Maia, a minor goddess. Mercury was the messenger of the gods and the god of roads and travel in Roman mythology. The Romans considered Mercury rather crafty and deceptive, and even a trickster or thief. Criminals regarded him as their protector. Mercury resembled the god Hermes in Greek mythology. Mercury delivered his messages with miraculous speed because he wore winged sandals. He also wore a broad-brimmed hat and carried a winged staff. Mercury's staff had snakes curled around it to protect him in his travels. In ancient times, most messengers wore a hat similar to Mercury's. Messengers also carried a staff to identify themselves so they could travel freely. Mercury later became associated with magic and science, and his staff has come to symbolize medicine. Venus: Venus was a major goddess in Roman mythology. She originally was the goddess of love and beauty. Later she also symbolized the creative force that sustains all life. Venus was also the mother of Aeneas, an ancestor of the legendary founders of Rome. The Romans worshiped her because of her association with the city's early history. They dedicated some of Rome's most important temples to her. They believed the family of Julius Caesar descended from Venus. Venus was born full-grown from the foam of the Mediterranean Sea. In spite of her beauty, Venus married the ugly, lame blacksmith god Vulcan. But Venus fell in love with the god of war, Mars. Their son Cupid was the god of love. Venus was a great friend of lovers and helped them with their problems. She even lent them her magic girdle, or sash, at times. It had the power to make its wearer loved.

    Extractions: FORTUNA's name actually means 'Lot Distributor' - because at her temple there was lots on offer. Card games, fruit machines, roulette... And between games, visitors would draw the lots and priests would use them to interpret the future. So, despite what you might have heard, gambling is really quite respectable. It was good enough for Caesar in his Palace, wasn't it?

A 5 page analysis of the character of Clytemnestra in the play 'Agamemnon' (458 B.C.) by the Greek playwright Aeschylus. The writer argues that it would have been easy for Aeschylus to portray Clytemnestra as a completely unsympathetic character. Instead, he forces the audience to see Clytemnestra's point of view. Nevertheless, by making Clytemnestra¹s most defining characteristic her duplicity, Aeschylus obviously intends for the audience to see her as conniving and driven by her love of power.
