This course will focus on the fundamentals of storytelling, analyzing Greek mythology, poems, and fables. We will also explore contemporary methods of storytelling, such as short stories by J. D. Salinger, Toni Morrison, and others. The Greeks introduced oral storytelling, which will lead us to Spalding Gray, Richard Pryor, and poet Kate Tempest and singer-storytellers, from Leonard Cohen to Bob Dylan and Beyoncé. It's All Greek... will study podcasts (S-TOWN, How I Built This) and webisodes (Booth at the End, High Maintenance).
