- Synopsis
- "You see the references everywhere. Look at great artwork like the Venus de Milo. Or classic literature such as James Joyce's Ulysses. Then think about our language, which is filled with words like typhoon and panic. You can even see them in ads for FTD Florist and Atlas moving company. What do all these things, from art to ads, have in common? They're based on Greek and Roman classic myths. We call something classic when it is so well loved that it is saved and passed down to new generations. Classics have been around for a long time, but they're not dusty or out of date. That's because they are brought back to life by each new person who sees and enjoys them."
