Consider this your next intellectual obsession. A philosophical exploration of stories, mythology, literature, and the human imagination.

Some stories sink so deeply into a culture that we end up living inside them without noticing. Mythos is a seasonal exploration of the literary works, myths, and stories that have shaped how we understand ourselves and the world.

Every edition takes one extraordinary work as its starting point. We enter its universe, investigate its philosophical questions, trace its cultural and historical significance, and follow the ideas that continue to resonate far beyond its pages.

Through philosophical inquiry, literary analysis, cultural criticism, mythology, and archetypal exploration, Mythos turns reading into an expansive intellectual adventure.

What happens inside Mythos? Each edition revolves around a particular literary work and a constellation of questions emerging from it. Rather than following a conventional literature curriculum, we use the work as an intellectual artifact: something to investigate, interpret, question, and connect with the world around us.

AVAILABLE EDITIONS: The Iliad, The Odyssey, Faust.
