Document Summary
Weekly responses - 25% (5 @ 5%) short responses ( - 1 page, single spaced, make sure not to short or too long) Analytical personal thoughts, not a personal journal. Will cover material from tuesday, may 10th to thursday, may 26th. Myth comes from the greek word mythos which means story, plot, authoritative speech. Every myth is a story and not just any story, it has to have collective informants. These stories existed centuries before authors like ovid and other wrote it down. And since they were interpreted the details tend to vary. The authors did not invent these stories, they just presented it. These stories existed orally before they were written down. Very closely related to religion but not the same. Divine myth - focused on the gods. Folktale - specific to a closed community. The characters are supernatural forces with tremendous powers far beyond that of normal humans aka gods. No definite setting in time or place.
