SUMMARY:Black Sea Myths and Modern Europe
DESCRIPTION:The symposium addresses key ancient Black Sea myths that ret
 ain a stable presence in the Western cultural imagination—
 Prometheus\, Medea and the Argonauts\, Iphigenia\, Odysseus—a
 nd aims to explore their life in the lands where these myths
  initially emerged. It targets especially the little-studied
  political mobilization of these myths in the construction o
 f modern national\, regional\, and pan-European identities for
  various communities around the Black Sea. This symposium is
  the first public event of a long-term international researc
 h program\, mobilizing an interdisciplinary team of scholars 
 from the U.S.\, U.K.\, Greece\, Bulgaria\, and the Republic of G
 eorgia under the umbrella of the global initiative “Black 
 Sea Networks” (http://blackseanetworks.org/)\, housed by th
 e Slavic Department of Columbia University.
