The History of Greek Mythology: From Mount Olympus to Modern Mystery

Seed Talks presents Dr Shelby Judge on the history and enduring appeal of Greek mythology, followed by a Q&A.

Dr Shelby Judge explores the mythic ages of ancient Greece — the Golden and Silver Ages, the Bronze Age and the Age of Heroes — and the defining stories and figures of each era. The talk asks why these myths have endured, examining their archetypes, moral tensions and insights into the human condition, from Homeric epics to modern retellings. Doors open at 6:30pm with the talk starting at 7pm, followed by a Q&A. The event is for ages 16+ and may include mature themes.
