Ep 11 - Metamorphoses (Ovid)
Hardcore Literature - Un pódcast de Benjamin McEvoy
Today we’re kicking off a new series called ‘The Psychological Significance of the Classic Myths’, starting with the Greek myth of Daedalus and Icarus taken from Ovid’s Metamorphoses. We’ll discuss the dangers of creating your own reality, taking risks, hubris, arrogance, living a life of virtue, sin, the fall of Lucifer, the Dunning Krueger Effect, poetry from W. H. Auden and William Carlos Williams, paintings by Titian and Brueghel, and much more.
