Greek Myth LVI: Pseudo-Apollodorus’s Bibliotheca Book III, Chapter XV – Cephalus, Oreithyia, Eumolpus, Aegeus, or Crete is Busy

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark… or at least on the island of Crete.

Discussion Prompts

  1. Which of these stories do you wish we had another perspective on?
  2. If you were Pasiphae, how would you choose to curse Minos?
  3. Comparative Mythology – Stories about hair. What do they have in common? How are they different? What does this tell us about our relationship with hair? And… go!
  4. How do you picture the concept of sending wild beasts after someone’s joints?

I have a BA in History and Classical Civilization from Loyola University Chicago and an MPH from Western Michigan University. I've been a geometry teacher, a religion teacher, a writing tutor. I'm a writer, a knitter, a dancer, a singer, an actor. And, yes, for fun I like to reread everything that was assigned while getting my classics degree.
