Class begins with a quick overview where we find Perseus. He has just slain Medusa and will return to Seriphos. He promptly runs into Andromeda, a beautiful Ethiopian princess left out as sacrifice to the angry gods. We will learn the origin of the prophecy that doomed Andromeda and its location. Here a tie in with Herman Melville's 'Moby Dick' will be used to describe the sea monster and Perseus' battle with it. While fighting the beast, Perseus lays aside Medusa's head; here we will...
