Page One

The theme for this week’s Page One is myths and legends as Charles Adrian digs out tales of gods and heroes from his uncle’s library and shares with you a little of his love for these stories. Suggested further reading, as explained in the podcast: John Keats’ Hyperion, Ovid’s Metamorphoses in Ted Hughes’ translation and both Ka and The Marriage Of Cadmus And Harmony by Roberto Calasso. None of this is compulsory; no extra marks will be awarded.
