Demeter and Persephone: Still Relevant Today

Instructor

Tamara Agha-Jaffar

What You Will Learn

Explore the enduring Greek myth of Demeter and Persephone, a powerful story that extends far beyond its role in explaining the changing seasons. Through this myth, we will explore timeless themes, including the mother-daughter bond; the three stages of a woman’s life; female mentorship; loss and reconciliation; trauma and healing; resilience in the face of oppression; and the symbolic meaning of the narcissus, pomegranate, and the underworld. Discover why its insights into women's experiences and personal transformation remain as relevant today as they were centuries ago.

Supplies Required:
The Homeric Hymn to Demeter. Translated by Gregory Nagy.
