greek and mythology
« Thread Started on Apr 5, 2006, 2:52pm »

does anyone else happen to have this weird obsession with Greek and Roman mythology? I find myself randomly researching different myths and mythological creatures, Greek ones especially, and building family trees especially, I have multiple notebooks filled with different variations on Greek or Roman mythological family trees and character profiles and such, most people find it unsual and kind of weird...I was wondering if anyone else has that weird kind of obsession I guess.

The Norse Gods would rape the Greek Gods in a fight.

what's norse mythology?

I don't really care much for GrecoRoman mythology although some of it is slightly interesting. Did a report on a Greek goddess last year but it wasn't anyone too significant.

Norse mythology, or Nordic Mythology as it's also called comes from the north part of Europe :/ they believed in Yggdrasil, Odin, Thor and Ragnarok (ragnerok).

I was in the Myth class. In the Norse myths, the gods name everything, and there long and hard to say.

I study Greek and Roman mythology in Latin class... but I'm not obsessed with it.

I will admit that I'm openly obsessed with the Tolkien Legendarium.

Currently reading some poesy by authors such as John Keats that makes multiple allusions to Greek mythology...I find it interesting how often writers reference various gods and goddesses, and stories about them. I wonder whether some really believed and worshiped these figures or just used them as a medium for artwork. Some of it really does catch my interest though whether fictitious or not.

I love myths. I only heared a few american ones though. Greek and Norse are the best ones I heared so far.
