Insanely well done video essay on "modern" retellings and the subgenera of feminist retellings of Greek myths. Really respectful towards these modern writers, but she gives a fantastic classicist perspective and explores how often Anglo culture uses Greek myths and history as a plaything.
Really beautifully done and a good examination of HOW we approach mythology and how oversimplifications can erase the actual depth of stories.
