What Is Myth? Crash Course Mythology #1

submitted by Huzzaz on 02/25/17 1

Welcome to Crash Course World Mythology, our latest adventure (and this series may be literally adventurous) in education. Over the next 40 episodes or so, we and Mike Rugnetta are going to learn about the world by looking at the foundational stories of a bunch of different cultural traditions. We’re going to look at the ways that people’s stories define them, and the ways they shape their culture. We’re going to learn about gods, goddesses, heroes, and tricksters, and a lot more. We’re going to walk the blurry line between myth and religion, and we’re going to like it. Want more Crash Course in person? We'll be at NerdCon: Nerdfighteria in Boston on February 25th and 26th!
