Have you ever found the narratives which surround us fascinating? Have you ever wanted to further explore the world of mythology? Do you ever wonder what it all means?

Explore a variety of approaches, definitions, and ways of analysing mythology. From those who see myths as all being the same, to those who scrutinise myths to find some underlying cultural structure - from popular culture to the environment - you can traverse the divergent fields of the study of myth.

In this course, we explore mythology from a variety of perspectives: anthropology, history, psychological, and much more.

This course is divided into seven sessions:

(1)What is a myth?
(2)Universalist Approaches
(3) Myths and Dreams
(4) Structuralist Approaches
(5) Space and Place
(6) Myth and Popular Culture
(7) Conclusion: Future of Myth
