In this episode, the “Traveller” welcomes the new collaborator of the series, Kassandra Peisistrati - archaeologist and researcher - who takes the place of Aristea.
With humour, a literary tone, and philosophical detours, the Traveller leads us on a double journey:
First to Olympus, where he explores the nature of “Eros the Loosener-of-Limbs” in relation to that of Eros Phanes, the “designs” of Zeus for a new generation of gods, and the “construction” of a new race of mortals, the Bronze Race.
Then, to the realm of Hades, where the narrator describes and attempts to interpret the “underworld” allegorically. Inspired by Socrates, Kazantzakis, and Camus, he examines the relationship between death, philosophy, and awareness, while unfolding images of the Acheron, Charon, Cerberus, Lethe, and Mnemosyne.
Between gods, myths, and subterranean kingdoms, the episode blends mythology, humour, philosophy, and allegory into a captivating narrative through which the second cycle of our mythological journeys continues, under the title Odyssey in the Ocean of Allegories , The Gods of Olympus, the Gods of the Mortals.
