Paper Abstract:
Cosmic rule flowing from the creative principle of Chaos. Zeus as master of the universe. The male principle. The female principle. Transfer of cosmic power from the creative female to the active male. Gaia. The Titans and Monsters. The gods in the Theogony; development of the human personality. Arrival of demigods and human beings.

Paper Introduction:
However one explains the way in which Zeus becomes master of the universe--and the fact that ultimate rulership is specified as male undoubtedly has parallels in the whole of recorded human experience--it is necessary to see that the transition of cosmic rule flows from a creative principle as the fundamental element of the cosmos to an active principle. The creative principle from Chaos is not inactive, but it belongs to a class of action different from that undertaken in a specific context. As a matter of logic, the cosmos had to be born and made into an environment before it could be acted in or upon. Creation, the female principle, precedes action. It starts from the absence of any context; it is no coincidence that Gaia is the sibling of Chaos (Campbell, 1987, p. 3). Unfolding creation constructs a context in which action, the male princ

Paper Abstract:
Discusses the Greek demi-god as represented in mythology, literature & art (statues).

Paper Introduction:
Herakles, or Hercules from the Roman period, was a Greek demi-god who is depicted in a variety of works, many of which tell stories from his life as embodied in Greek mythology. Several depictions of Herakles are found in the collection of the Getty Museum, among them the statue known as the Landsdowne Herakles, and the painted vase known as the Perseus Vase. Herakles, or Hercules, was a mortal and a bastard son of Zeus. In the temple of Apollo, there is a frieze that runs all round the chamber and that depicts the fight of Herakles with the Amazons and a battle against the Centaurs with a new leading motif, that of Apollo and Artemis as they appear driving a team of stags and bringing help while the bride flees to the old-fashioned statue of the god. An Amphora from about 485 B.C. shows Herakles and Athena pouring a libation, with Herakles

Paper Abstract:
Attempts to separate truth from myth regarding King Arthur. Emphasis on creating a picture of Arthur and his court that is as historically accurate, while also exposing flaws in popular and common perceptions.

Paper Introduction:
KING ARTHUR Western civilization has been entranced by the legend of King Arthur and his knights of the round table for almost a thousand years. Medieval and Victorian people alike were enthralled by the tale of a king and his men who fought for justice and created a golden period of peace and chivalry. An age that was destroyed by the personal betrayal of his wife, his best friend, and his illegitimate son. And yet the legend says he was borne away to Avalon, with the unspoken, but clearly implied promise that one day he would return, hence "the once and future king." Searching for the truth behind the myth, one finds very few hard facts to tell the story. In searching through reliable records of the time, historians have found scarcely more than the bare bones of a story. By carefully arranging these bones and fleshing them out with what

Paper Abstract:
Examines several recent investigations into the mystery of Atlantis. Focuses on Berlitz' account ATLANTIS: THE EIGHTH CONTINENT & examines the quality of argument & evidence for the case.

Paper Introduction:
INTRODUCTION The story of Atlantis has been examined from a variety of perspectives, with some viewing the story as myth and some as history waiting to be proven true. For those who are going to try to prove the truth of Atlantis, though, the evidence they offer must be of a compelling nature to overcome skepticism and to demonstrate that what appears to be only an ancient morality tale has a basis in reality. Many of those who believe most strongly in the story of Atlantis as fact, however, do so as a matter of faith rather than because of any stringent historical or scientific analysis. They also may begin their investigation not by asking whether the story is true or not but by assuming that it is true and then shaping the evidence to fit this preconception. One instance of this sort of presumptive analysis

Paper Abstract:
Compares mythological Hercules & Biblical Samson as tragic heroes.

Paper Introduction:
This research will compare and contrast the mythic figures Hercules, from Greek mythology, and Samson, from the Hebrew Bible. The research will discuss how each can be interpreted in terms of heroic tragedy. The narrative lines of Hercules (Heracles/Herakles) and Samson are strikingly similar. Both are heroes of their respective cultures, both are distinguished chiefly by their great physical strength, and both are flawed as human beings, superhuman as they are. The flaws figure prominently into their individual experience, but their behavior and growth over the period of their lives are implicated in the culture of which they are each representative. There appears to have been rough equivalence in the time period that the stories of Samson and Hercules first emerged. The Samson narrative, which takes up four chapters of Judges (13-16), focus

Paper Abstract:
Role & significance of food in Greek myth of Demeter & Persephone, "Alice in Wonderland," etc.

Paper Introduction:
In one of those peculiar but enduring distinctions that exist between the worlds of high and low culture, the stories of the people of classical Greece have come down to us as “myths” rather than “folktales” – and so are to be considered in general of greater consequence. However, for the purposes of this essay on the importance of food in fairytales, we shall set aide this distinction for the moment because it is from Greek “myth” that comes the archetypal story of food and folklore. The particular story being referred to is that of Demeter who was for the Greeks the goddess of corn and the harvest. When her daughter Persephone was abducted by Hades, god of the underworld, Demeter's grief was so great that she neglected the land; no plants grew, and famine devastated the earth. Dismayed at this situation, Zeus, the ruler of the universe, demanded that

Paper Abstract:
Examines symbol's origins, history & various cultural, religious, allegorical & political (Nazi) interpretations.

Paper Introduction:
INTRODUCTION The swastika is an equilateral cross with arms bent at right angles, all in the same rotary direction, usually clockwise. The swastika as an ancient symbol of prosperity and good fortune, and it was widely distributed throughout the ancient and modern world. The word for this symbol is derived from the Sanskrit svastika, which means "conducive to wellbeing." The swastika was a favorite symbol on ancient Mesopotamian coinage. In Scandinavia, the lefthand swastika was the sign for the god Thor's hammer. The swastika also appeared in early Christian and Byzantine art and was known as the gammadion cross, or crux gammata, because it could be constructed from four Greek gammas attached to a common base. The symbol can also be found in South and Central America, among the Maya, and in North Ame

Paper Abstract:
Compares two Trickster characters, the spider-man of Ghana (Kweku Ananse) & a part-man/part-god Greek figure (Prometheus).

Paper Introduction:
For those people (whether they are themselves religious or not) who have grown up immersed in the Judeo-Christian tradition, the image of the archetypal divine figure – whether god or angel or saint – is an entity of pure goodness. Moreover, within the Judeo-Christian tradition, divine beings are most certainly both honest and trustworthy; indeed one of the ways that humans and divine entities may be distinguished from each other is precisely along this axis. But this distinction between humans as inconstant and fallible and gods and their minions as trustworthy, always good and perfectly honest is a certainly not a universal aspect of human pantheons. In fact, it may exist in a minority of human cultures, for many of the world’s religions contain a figure who straddles these descriptive categories. This being, who is in the class

Paper Abstract:
Compares world views, mythologies, origins of universe & human life among Chinese yin-yang school, Amer.-Indians & Mayans.

Paper Introduction:
Different cultures produce their own particular way of structuring the world they see around them. They use religion and ritual to explain, to gain control, and to express their own sense of connectedness to their environment. Pre-scientific societies develop their own mythologies to explain the origin of the universe and of human life. A comparison of three such societies shows how varied these ideas can be, with reference to the Maya, the ancient Chinese, and the Indians of the American southwest. The New Text School in China was dominant throughout most of the Former Han dynasty and was given its name only later in apposition to the Old Text school, which rose to prominence in the time of Christ and gained ascendance through the Later Han dynasty. By "old" text the name means that the work was written

Paper Abstract:
Origins in Irish folklore, animism, background (language, Celtic culture, religion), character traits, meaning of name, disenfranchisement, examples.

Paper Introduction:
The leprechaun of Irish folklore is familiar to all who have ever sat among a green-wearing crowd on St. Patrick's Day. According to this modern-day popular telling of fairy tale, the leprechaun came into being something like this: In the beginning, before there was humankind in the form even of Adam and Eve, God had created the angels to worship Himself. That all did not do so is well known: The Archangel Lucifer thought himself an equal to Himself and fomented a rebellion amongst the angel legions, arch and otherwise. It was touch and go for a while - not because God was ever in doubt of losing, mind you, but because the Almighty Father wanted to see who among his heavenly creations had faith in Himself - and humility in themselves (jealousy, you see, being the root of Lucifer's failings). The Archangels Michael and Gabriel were, of

Paper Abstract:
Historical, literary & mythological roots & evolution of story of Arthur's leadership & personality.

Paper Introduction:
One of the world's most enduring legends is the story of King Arthur and the Round Table, a story which in the popular imagination has become lodged somewhere in the fourteenth century when knighthood was in flower, though in fact the story is much older. If there were a historical King Arthur, in fact, he would have existed centuries before the era of knighthood, probably sometime in the sixth century. The historical reality of Arthur is much in doubt and remains a controversy, though Arthur has his champions who believe the stories of his reign began with a real personage and then were turned into myth and legend by various writers. The Arthurian legends began as a literary form in the twelfth century with traveling minstrels who told stories of heroism, usually built in the exploits of the French king

Paper Abstract:
Compares heroes of Roman & Celtic mythologies. Divine vs. human qualities, adventures, relationships, interpretations.

Paper Introduction:
INTRODUCTION Different mythologies from different regions of the world have similar patterns which seem to indicate that the idea of the hero is one with a universal message and that derives from a universal impetus in human beings to have someone to look up to, some to serve as a champion, and someone on whom to base a certain philosophical view of life and how to direct it. Yet often these mythologies offer more than similar patterns and have even closer agreement in terms of specific aspects of the stories and lives of heroes. An examination of the Roman version of the story of Hercules and the Celtic myth of Cuchulain shows a number of areas of agreement indicating similar patterns. The agreement is not so close as to imply borrowing, but rather it shows different ways of expressing certain human needs, attitudes, and

Paper Abstract:
Greek god. Traits, Positive & negative qualities, myths, masks, powers, dismemberment, compared to Orphic religion & related to Christianity.

Paper Introduction:
Greek mythology scholars have called Dionysus the most cosmopolitan of the Greek gods. According to the ambassador of King Seleucus, who, like Alexander, discovered India and its divinities, only Dionysus could match the power of the god Siva. Both Dionysus and Siva were thought to be benevolent as well as terrible. They were viewed as terrible because they reaped death in every victim sacrificed. Also, when some contemporaries of Plutarch, the Gentiles, evoked the god of Israel, they named Dionysus as the overseer of the harvest and the gathering of fruits (Detienne, 1989, p. 1). Of all the Greek gods, Dionysus is the least sedentary. Dionysus was conceived in Thebes by the mortal woman, Semele, who carried him there in her belly for several months. Since he was a nomadic god, he never resided in his birthplace. However,-

Paper Abstract:
Examines god & central figure of major Greek cult celebrating ecstasy, wine, orgies.

Paper Introduction:
Dionysus was the central figure in a major cult of the Greek world, a cult that would have a long-term influence in mythology, religion, and literature. Dionysus was a pan-Hellenic god who was widely celebrated throughout the Archaic period and honored at dramatic contests with tragedies and comedies. His was also an orgiastic cult. Dionysus is the god of ecstasy and possession and might be called the patron saint of the drama as well as of various festivals and celebrations. In Greek mythology, Dionysus was a bastard son of Zeus. The mother of Dionysus is variously named depending on the source, and some have said she was Demeter, or Io, and some Dione, and still others Lethe. The most common story has it that Zeus disguised himself as a mortal and had a secret affair with Semele ("moon"), the daughter of King Cadmus of Thebes. Zeus's wife,

Paper Abstract:
Continuation of themes of Holy Grail, heroism, romance, morality & spirituality in Malory's 14th Cent. [Le Morte D'Arthur] & Susan Cooper's 1965 juvenile novel [Over Sea, Under Stone].

Paper Introduction:
The purpose of this research is to examine the continuation of the Arthurian tradition established in Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur, particularly in the story line dealing with the quest for the Holy Grail, in the post-medieval juvenile novel Over Sea, Under Stone by Susan Cooper. The plan of the research will be to set forth the Grail story line in Malory's work, and then to note similarities and differences in Cooper's treatment, with a view toward suggesting the purpose Cooper had in using the Arthurian legend in her book. To discuss the quest for the Holy Grail in Malory is to discuss the principal feature of moral content in the narrative that legitimates the entire environment of chivalric adventurism. As Malory's tale makes plain, the pull of priorities among affairs of the heart, assorted court intrigues, and the

Paper Abstract:
Examines heroes' moral codes, sources, sociohistorical contexts, loyalty, honor, love, theology.

Paper Introduction:
The heroic characters described in Beowulf and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight represent in their heroic adventures, their attitudes, and their relationship to others in their society different moral codes, but each character does have a moral code by which he lives. In each book, as it exists today, that code is related to Christian teaching (the Christian allusions in Beowulf were either added to Beowulf by some later editor or were added to the pagan legends by the unknown poet), and the very structure of the society in each story is built on that code. The story of Beowulf is an interesting case of a literary work that had no influence on subsequent works until modern times because the work was lost, and though a handful of learned antiquaries could study the text in Shakespeare's time, they could not comprehend Beowulf, the most important text preserved

Paper Abstract:
History, qualities, significance & depictions in art of goddess in Greece and Near East.

Paper Introduction:
According to the ancient Greeks, Aphrodite was a beautiful, youthful goddess, associated with the attributes of love and life (Schefold 15). Between the 6th century B.C. and the 1st century A.D., she was frequently used as a subject matter in Greek and Hellenistic art. During that period, goddesses related to Aphrodite were often seen in Near Eastern art as well. In fact, Aphrodite's origins can be found in the goddess Astarte, who was worshipped by the Phoenicians. The Assyrians, who controlled the Near East up to the end of the seventh century B.C., worshipped a goddess named Ishtar who was similar in many ways to Aphrodite. The Babylonians adapted Ishtar to their pantheon and, like the Assyrians, considered her to be not only the goddess of love and life, but also of warfare (Ghirshman 393). The Persians, who took control of the region in 539 B.C., had a goddess named

Paper Abstract:
Focuses on those at whose birth destruction was prophesized.

Paper Introduction:
There are similarities which can be seen in comparing the various myths of different times and cultures. Many cultures have had mythological heroes at whose birth destruction was prophesied. In some cases, these prophecies threatened the death of a parent; in others, they threatened the destruction of an entire society. For example, in Greek mythology, the birth of the hero Paris was associated with a prophecy regarding the destruction of the entire city of Troy. Paris' father was Priam, the king of Troy, whose wife Hecuba had already given birth to one son, Hector. When she was pregnant with her second child, who was to be Paris, Hecuba had a terrible dream in which she saw a burning torch set fire to the city of Troy. Priam consulted a prophet on this matter, and "the soothsayer warned that the child to be born would be the destruction of Troy" (Tripp 446). In an
