Introduction The purpose of this course is to provide, for the students of English literature, an introductory yet comprehensive body of knowledge in Greek and Roman mythology. By introducing Greek and Roman mythology it is hoped that the student will be able to identify the significance of ancient myths in literary texts. Thus, through a narrative based approach, the tradition of Greek and Roman myths will be elaborated. Objectives and Strategies 1. To increase the students’ terminology and knowledge in mythology by introducing narrative readings of Hamilton’s volume accompanied by lecturer’s additional elaborations. 2. To reinforce or develop comprehension skills of students so as to boost their understanding of mythological allusions. 3. To encourage students to become more observant and appreciative of the world of Greek and Roman myths; and possibly the influence of mythology in the world today.Page | 2 4. To help students gain further understanding of the ancient ways of theology and philosophy by utilizing Greek and Roman mythology. 5. To encourage the students to read even more on the subjects introduced during the course. This course will include poetical or textual analyses because of the highly motivational and important content of Greek and Roman mythology in English literature. Therefore, some samples of poetry or prose will be read and analyzed in the class. It should be made clear that in mythology, including Greek and Roman mythology, the myths were expressions of the fears, problems, and aspirations that men have had for generations that gradually in human history took on external reality in the form of myths; and that oral tradition had the responsibility to preserve them long before written tradition. Moreover, these myths were compiled and written by poets who did not hesitate to make changes in the stories whenever they desired or deemed it fit. Last but not least, throughout this course myths of Orpheus, Venus and Adonis and Pygmalion will be read in a few masterpieces of English literature so as to help us understand how myths are transformed, used and appropriated in works of literature. In achieving the aforementioned objectives the following hints might be helpful: 1. Read and discuss myths. 2. Rewrite myths in your own words. 3. Explain the message of the myth being discussed. 4. Interpret symbols or expressions in myths. 5. Read different versions of the same myth.
