Through detailed study of modern Greek texts, predominantly from poetry, this seminar will explore the ongoing dialogue between significant modern Greek poets such as C.P. Cavafy, George Seferis and Yannis Ritsos and classical myths. Students will study methods of analysing ancient myths and their contemporary transformations through modernist or post-modernist practices.
