Consider why myths were propagated from generation to generation, and why they are still potent in the present. • You may explore how myths develop alongside a culture – influenced by the changing society, and in turn how the myths alter society OR • You may examine why myths that seem to explain the creation of humanity, the structure of a particular society, the universe. Examine how this may be happening now – what paradigms / themes/ are resurrected in modern times? • Identify and share to what extent mythology is involved in life today; for instance, what motifs from ancient myth are used, what ideals and values from the myths are reflected in the modern work. • Convey what you have learned and the connections you have made.
