Backbone Literature: Greek Mythology
Ø Why Greek Mythology? Why is it worth our time this term?
Ø …because it’s the
BACKBONE of most of the reading we will do this term, and maybe for the reading
you will do throughout your life.
Ø …because
allusions/references to it are everywhere!
Big Idea
Ø Continue to listen and look for resonances, echoes,
patterns.
