Authority & Linearity In Classic Literature

February 4, 2010

My final graduate school paper was on the role of linearity in classical literature and how women subvert and become subverted by it. My primary focus was on The Descent of Inanna, but I also discuss The Rig Veda, the Persephone myth from The Homeric Hymns, and the Hebrew Bible. This paper was an extension of what I had written about the entire semester.

Tags The Descent Of Inanna, The Rig Veda, Persephone, Homer, Bible, Non Linear
