Week of 10 Aug 2020
2020 Summer Week 6
"Through mythic poetry, retold tales, and educational resources, Mythology in Verse seeks to foster a deeper understanding of traditional cultures, their impact on each other, and on the modern world."
Myth School
I've been working behind the scenes on a platform that will guide students on a self-chosen path through each lesson based on their level of interest.
Just the Basics - Quick facts appropriate for elementary school students and up.
The Middle Path - Supplementing the basics with additional concepts appropriate for middle school students and up.
Advanced - The highest level of detail and most advanced concepts for high school students and up.
Look for more next week.
The Epic Mythoverse
For nine years, Agamemnon's army has besieged Priam's Troy. But as events in the Iliad wind down, a single javelin, blown off its mark, hurls Penthesileia and her Amazon companions against the balance of powers, into the Trojan War, and into Epic history.And Then, An Amazon is an adaptation, by MiV Author in Residence Greg R. Fishbone, of Book 1 of The Posthomerica by Quintus of Smyrna. This story represents the earliest and most complete version of Epic Cycle events between The Iliad and The Odyssey of Homer. This Week's Verse:
"Arrival"
Penthesileia and her Amazonsenter the City of Troy.
Amazons!
Streaming on Twitch
Another experiment this week was setting up a stream on Twitch, writing a new poem in real time. If this is something you'd be interested in seeing more of, let me know.Looking Forward
The Summer Session is drawing to a close. What comes next? I'm not sure, but there will be more educational content, more poems, and more interaction. Thanks for sticking around!--Greg R. Fishbone,
