an overview of the analysis of mythology
Have you ever found the narratives which surround us fascinating? Have you ever wanted to further explore the world of mythology? Do you ever wonder what it all means?
Explore a variety of approaches, definitions, and ways of analysing mythology. From those who see myths as all being the same, to those who scrutinise myths to find some underlying cultural structure - from popular culture to the environment - you can traverse the divergent fields of the study of myth.
In this course, we explore mythology from a variety of perspectives: anthropology, history, psychological, and much more.
This course is divided into seven sessions:
(1) What is a myth?
(2) Universalist Approaches
(3) Myths and Dreams
(4) Structuralist Approaches
(5) Space and Place
(6) Myth and Popular Culture
(7) Conclusion: Future of Myth
