(4) Human vs. Divine. One of the major structuring oppositions throughout all of Greek myth (and early Greek culture) is that between
human and divine. Even as the Greek gods are anthropomorphic, they eat, work, and play differently than humans. Examine a myth or set of
myths from the perspective of this binarism. What lessons does your chosen myth teach about the opposition between human and divine? How
does this opposition structure the world physically, ethically, and morally?
