AREL 805 - The Importance of Being Witty3 credits
While Greek and Roman myths have grounded the Western cultural imagination for more than two millennia, many artists have struggled to transform these ancient stories. Twentieth-century Ireland produced two writers whose work represents different approaches to such metamorphoses: Yeats, who turned to regional models, and Joyce, who localized the Greco-Roman ones. This course will explore mythic transformation, with some attention to Yeats’ mythic worlds and special emphasis on Joyce’s early processes and works.
