have always been mythmakers. Myths are universal and timeless stories that
reflect and shape our lives—they explore our desires, our fears, our longings,
and provide narratives that remind us what it means to be human. History is
comprised of another set of narratives that establish our knowledge of the
world as part of an organized temporal consciousness of past, present and
future. In this class we will explore the meaning of myth and history and their
function in <i style>mythistorima, </i>the Greek
word for fiction, in novels from Greece and Cyprus. Students will acquire the
theoretical and scholarly skills in reading and interpreting forms of mythic
and historical thinking and expression. Authors include: R. Galanaki, C.
Montis, G. Eugenides. Students will read selections from: Barthes, Baudrillard,
Chakraparty, Collingwood, Eagleton, Eliade, Nietzsche, Foucault, Hartog, Hegel,
and Hunt. </span><span style="font-family:"Georgia","serif"">Though
