Anna plans to share information from Robert Graves, a well-known authority on the subject of Greek Mythology. From this article, “The Palace of Olympus,” from Myths of Ancient Greece, she begins her introduction, “Once upon a time in ancient Greece, there was a palace of the Immortals. Like members of many large families who lived together, these Olympians quarreled. While they certainly didn't approve of lesser mortals, they acted a lot like them. Listen to this story about some members of the family who enjoyed life outside the palace.”
Anna chooses to show a large visual depiction of a beautiful marble sculpture by Bernini which depicts her main characters at the conclusion of this story where Daphne begins to grow branches and leaves while Apollo is close enough to touch the leaves. “Long, long ago there lived a mythological immortal who was worshipped as the god of light. As a very young child, Apollo proved his might against a formidable foe. But in the time between, he fell prey to Echo's arrow and became a foolish lover who could not contain his adoration of a fair young maiden named Daphne. It is her form that is forever known to us in this marble sculpture. In it, she is shown in her attempt to escape the Apollo and his fervent desire for her. This is the story of ‘Daphne and Apollo—Getting What We Ask For or What We Deserve'”
