Description:
This week we take a look at the epic poem, The Odyssey. Walking through the history, the plot, the themes and the meaning we slot it into the format of Joseph Campbell’s The Hero with a Thousand Faces.
Through this journey we run into connections with the Sioux epic: Black Elk Speaks, Joseph Conrad’s The Heart of Darkness, and even The Big Lebowski. Just a whirlwind journey through many of the ways The Odyssey impacts us today and through the ages.
