Alex Andreou's Podyssey

*** SUPPORT PODYSSEY ON ⁠⁠⁠⁠KO-FI.COM/PODYSSEY⁠⁠⁠⁠ ***

What is there to be said about Prometheus that has not been said already, by voices much more illustrious than mine - from Plato to Goethe and Aeschylus to Mary Shelley?

Quite a lot it turns out. This is the beauty of myths - they wrap around each present differently, always revealing different things.

Make sure you are on ko-fi as a monthly subscriber, with the right email, so you get an interview to next week's LIVE episode on Prometheus. Thursday the 12th, at 8pm.

...

The myths, tales, and concepts of ancient Greece echo and reach into every aspect of modern life. Often misunderstood, frequently romanticised, and sometimes deliberately twisted - to understand their origins and truth is to get a real glimpse into the universal themes that connect us to the past and each other.

Welcome to Podyssey with Alex Andreou. Each week we will take one myth, one concept, person, place, or theme from Ancient Greece, take it apart, figure out its inner workings, trace its influence, juice it for its wisdom, reimagine, update and put it back together - all shiny and new!

Did the Ancient Greeks keep pets? What did they think of them and how did they treat them?

This was the question asked by a subscriber, during a live zoom session. And although the topic did not fit well within the format of the show, it was nonetheless so tantalising a question, that I thought it merited a little bonus episode of its own.

Apples - especially Golden Apples - keep popping up throughout mythology, dripping with rich - and often conflicting - symbolism. The influence of these stories pervades religion, music, modern art, cinema, and technology. Funny story: they probably weren't apples.

Most of what you think you know about the story of Narcissus, is wrong. This isn’t a story of conceit or vanity. It isn’t even the story of one person. It is a story of unrequited love and pain, of the corruption of innocence, of losing oneself.

Before Medusa was monstrous, she was beautiful. And before she was beautiful, she was powerful. Everything I thought I knew was wrong. She is a riddle that defies solution, because she comes from a time before the shape of things was settled. She laughs.

What is the moral of "The Tortoise and The Hare"? What is the warning in "A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing"? What is "The Fox and The Grapes" about? You're probably wrong about all three.

In the last instalment of the Aesop Trilogy, Alex delves into the fables themselves and finds the many ways in which they have been twisted and why.

"Our Aesop-muscle has atrophied. We have forgotten how to craft and tell our stories - and in the process forgotten how to listen to the stories of others. Humanity without stories is humanity with no identity."

"How the story made us feel is what we store and recall - not the hard logic, nor the facts and figures. And while it is ludicrous to say 'people have had enough of experts', it’s perfectly fair to say that they have had enough of how their teaching style makes them feel."

Last week we explored the complicated, and largely made-up, biography that is "The Aesop Romance". In this part I talk to experts to try and understand why it is that we need a "back story" for the creators of stories that we connect with, what is the difference between a reliable and unreliable narrator, how populism has refined the art of story-telling, and why only better stories - not better facts - can help us.
