Poetry: Orpheus & Co.

Our poetry discussion this month will examine variations on the Greek myth of Orpheus, reputed to be the greatest poet of all time, and his quest to rescue his beloved Eurydice from  the Underworld. We’ll read translations of the original myth, discuss poems from the Renaissance to the present, and talk about the many musical and dramatic adaptations. Hosted by Paul Howe. Registration required. You will receive a Zoom link the day before the event.
