Greek Mythology Review 2 It has been quite awhile since we’ve done Greek Mythology in class, so before we can continue with some new myths, we need to do some review.

Shenoute Paper Draft
Mimetic Devotion and Dress in Some Monastic Portraits from the Monastery of Apa Apollo at Bawit* Thelma K. Thomas For the monastery of Apa Apollo at Bawit in Middle Egypt there is good archaeological documentation, a wealth of primary written sources mainly in the form of inscriptions, and a long history of scholarship illuminating both the site and the paintings at the center of this study.1 The archaeological site (figure 1) is extensive, and densely built. The many paintings, usually dated to the sixth and seventh centuries, survive in varying states of preservation from a range of functional contexts, however in this discussion I focus on * I am grateful to Hany Takla for inviting me to present a version of this article at the Twelfth St. Shenouda-UCLA Conference of Coptic Studies in July 2010. I owe thanks as well to Jenn Ball, Betsy Bolman, Jennifer Buoncuore, Mariachiara Giorda, Tom Mathews, and Maged Mikhail.

Ammianus Marcellinus on the Geography of the Pontus Euxinus
Histos () – AMMIANUS MARCELLINUS ON THE GEOGRAPHYOF THE PONTUS EUXINUS “Das eitle Bemühen um Allwissenheit, wie es der Fluch aller encyclo- pädischen Bildung ist, und vor allem der Fluch jener unseligen, auch auf dem geistigen Gebiet, in der Trümmerwelt einer grössern Vergang- enheit kümmerlich hausenden Generationen war, zeigt sich bei Ammian … auf diesem Gebiet …” This quotation of more than a century ago by Theodor Mommsen expresses a harsh verdict on Ammianus Marcellinus’ acquaintance with the geogra- phy of the world as it was known in his days (it is geographical knowledge which is meant by “diesem Gebiet”). In this field Ammianus had a “schein- haftes Bescheidwissen” and empty words had to conceal his “Unkenntniss”, according to the same Mommsen. Mommsen’s article, written in reaction to V. Gardthausen’s Die geographischen Quellen Ammians , which expressed a more positive opinion, had a great impact. Soon Mommsen’s unfavourable view of Ammianus’ knowledge of geography was widely accepted and has for a long time not been seriously disputed. The Res Gestae of the fourth-century historian Ammianus Marcellinus started where Tacitus had left off, that is in the year C.E. with the reign of Nerva, and ended at the year . The work originally consisted of books, but the first books have unfortunately been lost. The extant books cover only some twenty-five years of Roman history, namely the years from to . Thus Ammianus wrote the history of his own time, of which he himself was not only a part but also an eyewitness, since he was present at several important events of this period.

While a knowledge of these myths is undoubtedly necessary to a clear understanding of much in literature and the arts, yet it is not for this reason alone that they have been selected; the myths that have appealed to the poets, the painters, and the sculptors for so many ages are the very ones that have the greatest depth of meaning, and that are the most beautiful and the best worth telling.

Script Sample
ACT ONE The OVERTURE ends. A SPOTLIGHT appears roughly center stage. A well-groomed and timid-looking man in his 20s-30s is standing in it – EPIMETHEUS. Frightened, like a lamb going to slaughter, HE looks above the audience’s head at some unseen entity. A booming VOICE arises to answer HIS look: VOICE So. Epimetheus. You have come. I am impressed. For a moment, it doesn’t seem that EPIMETHEUS will reply, but HE does – that is, barely – with a gulp and a shaky nod. VOICE I can’t hear you. Another gulp. EPIMETHEUS (Intended humor.) That’s funny, Sir, because I can... hear you. VOICE I should hope so! There’s not a creature on Earth nor a star in the Heavens that can’t. My voice is one whose purpose is to be heard and heeded. And, for all the world to hear, I will now say this... Gulp, gulp, gulp. VOICE You are absolved. EPIMETHEUS freezes in delight. EPIMETHEUS (Too good to be true.) Absolved? VOICE Completely. 2 EPIMETHEUS Completely? VOICE Absolved. EPIMETHEUS Completely Absolved? VOICE (Annoyed.) Yes. Listen to me, Epimetheus. You are absolved. You are absolved from your sin. EPIMETHEUS Yes, I mean... after all... it was only... fire. The VOICE curdles with displeasure. VOICE Is that really all you think it was? EPIMETHEUS gulps again. EPIMETHEUS Well... no... not only fire... that is... VOICE It was a gift the Humans shouldn’t have had. You and your brother betrayed me by offering it to them. But now I have forgiven you and welcome you home.

Robert Graves the White Goddess
ROBERT GRAVES THE WHITE GODDESS IN DEDICATION All saints revile her, and all sober men Ruled by the God Apollo's golden mean— In scorn of which I sailed to find her In distant regions likeliest to hold her Whom I desired above all things to know, Sister of the mirage and echo. It was a virtue not to stay, To go my headstrong and heroic way Seeking her out at the volcano's head, Among pack ice, or where the track had faded Beyond the cavern of the seven sleepers: Whose broad high brow was white as any leper's, Whose eyes were blue, with rowan-berry lips, With hair curled honey-coloured to white hips. Green sap of Spring in the young wood a-stir Will celebrate the Mountain Mother, And every song-bird shout awhile for her; But I am gifted, even in November Rawest of seasons, with so huge a sense Of her nakedly worn magnificence I forget cruelty and past betrayal, Careless of where the next bright bolt may fall. FOREWORD am grateful to Philip and Sally Graves, Christopher Hawkes, John Knittel, Valentin Iremonger, Max Mallowan, E. M. Parr, Joshua IPodro, Lynette Roberts, Martin Seymour-Smith, John Heath-Stubbs and numerous correspondents, who have supplied me with source- material for this book: and to Kenneth Gay who has helped me to arrange it. Yet since the first edition appeared in 1946, no expert in ancient Irish or Welsh has offered me the least help in refining my argument, or pointed out any of the errors which are bound to have crept into the text, or even acknowledged my letters.

In the Beginning & Pandora's
Read the following Greek Myth carefully. You will be asked to complete various activities based on your understanding and what you are able to infer from the text. Storyboard activity - Once you have read this, summarise the story in 6 parts and complete the storyboard sheet using images and text. In the Beginning and Pandora’s Box At the very beginning, the gods ruled over an empty world. From their home on Mount Olympus, where they lived in halls of sunlight and cloud, they looked out over oceans and islands, woodland and hills. But nothing moved in the landscape because there were no animals or birds or people. Zeus, king of the gods, gave Prometheus and his brother Epimetheus the task of making living creatures, and he sent them down to live on earth. Epimetheus made turtles and gave them shells; he made horses and gave them tails and manes. He made anteaters and gave them long noses and longer tongues; he made birds and gave them the gift of flight. But although Epimetheus was a wonderful craftsman, he wasn’t nearly as clever as his brother. So Prometheus watched over his brother’s work and, when all the animals and birds, insects and fishes were made, it was Prometheus who made the very last creature of all. He took soil and mixed it into mud, and out of that he moulded First Man. ‘I’ll make him just like us Gods - two legs, two arms and upright - not crawling on all fours. All the other beasts spend their days looking at the ground, but Man will look up at the stars!’ When he had finished, Prometheus was very proud of what he had made.
