Once you have viewed the Joseph Campbell videos, you will need to read the three stories that have been provided for you: the Enuma Elish (Mesopotamian Creation Story); Odin and Ymir (Norse Creation Story); The Origin of Japan and Her People (Japanese Creation Story); and The Buffalo Wife (Blackfoot Myth). After you have read and analyzed each story, write a 2.5-3 page paper in which you thoroughly explain how the four functions of mythology are illustrated in two of the stories. Describe the impact you believe each story had on the culture and the people who produced it, why the myth still carries meaning today, and explain which of the three stories you enjoyed the most. Remember to follow the CEC structure in your writing. Your paper should be double-spaced. Please use a size twelve font in either Times New Roman, Calibri, or Arial.
