Course Description
This course examines China's rich repository of myths from a socio-historical perspective and considers their cultural significance in both an ancient and contemporary context. By introducing a selection of Chinese myths, both well-known and lesser-known ones, and comparing China's mythological tradition to that of other ancient civilizations such as Greece, Scandinavia and Native America, a macroscopic examination of the relation between myths and qualities that are conceived of as traditionally Chinese is conducted. Along the way, students are encouraged to examine various Chinese myths from different perspectives (i.e., cultural, anthropological and psychological), and contemplate on their roles within the development of Chinese cultural identity.
