Are you familiar with Hades? He's the Greek god of the underworld, kind of like the devil but quite different. Why did he kidnap Persephone and keep her there? What does this myth tell us about a patriarchal male-dominated society? What can we share about gender roles, marriage, and the other sociological aspects in this classic myth?
