Kursinhalt

Have you ever wondered why cultures separated by thousands of miles share similar stories of floods, heroics, and the stars? In this class, we step beyond the well-known Greek and Roman myths to explore the vast tapestry of world mythology.

As a mythologist and experienced educator, I invite you to join a "Storyteller’s Circle." This isn't a dry history lecture; it is an active exploration. We will dive into the Norse sagas, Egyptian mysteries, Mayan creation myths, and the folklore of the East. We will compare these tales, discuss their modern relevance, and uncover the universal truths hidden within them.

What We Will Cover:

  • The Global Pantheon: An introduction to different mythological systems (Norse, Celtic, Mesopotamian, Aztec, and more).

  • Comparative Mythology: Identifying "The Hero’s Journey" and shared symbols, archetypes, and motifs across diverse cultures.

  • Creatures & Cryptids: A deep dive into the monsters and spirits that haunt global folklore.

  • Myth in Modernity: How these ancient stories influence the movies, games (like Baldur’s Gate), and books we love today.

Skills You Will Develop:

  • Advanced Narrative Ability: Learn to summarize complex plots and describe characters with nuance.

  • Critical Analysis: Move beyond "what happened" to "why it matters," using high-level English vocabulary.

  • Cultural Literacy: Gain a deeper understanding of the foundations of Western and Global literature.

  • Abstract Discussion: Practice expressing opinions on philosophical themes like fate, justice, and the supernatural.

My Methodology:

I believe that the best way to learn a language is through passionate immersion.

  • Visual Discovery: I often use maps, artwork, and primary texts to bring the stories to life.

  • Socratic Discussion: I lead with questions, encouraging you to share your own cultural myths and personal interpretations.

  • Narrative Scaffolding: I provide the specialized vocabulary (archaic terms, idioms, and descriptive adjectives) you need to speak like an expert.

Who this class is for:

  • Beginner Mythology Fans: If you love Percy Jackson or Marvel movies and want to know the "real" stories, this is for you!

  • Intermediate Scholars: Students who want to look deeper into the symbolism and history of world religions and folklore.

  • English Learners: Best suited for B1 (Intermediate) to C2 (Proficient) levels who want to move past "textbook English" and into meaningful, intellectual conversation.
