| dc.description.abstract | Scholars and researchers have always been interested in classical literature. This study; however, attempts to draw a link between modern literature and classical one. Classical literature is widely believed to be a store house of recorded myths and values. Our thesis shows that myths were the first attempt by human beings to think, explain, justify and produce concepts and images. They were the basis on which the first literature was established, and have continued to be a major source of inspiration. It is our assumption in this research that classical mythology holds its firm ground in modern writing. Hence, classical literature can be used as a means to measure modern writing. Our focus of interest, in this research, is on the values that can be recognized in Joanne Rowling's Harry Potter and Tewfik Al-Hakim's Pygmalion. It is also our intention to draw an analogy between Rowling's Philosopher Stone, Goblet of Fire and Pygmalion in terms of gender interests. So, this research attempts to build a close relationship between classical literature and modern literature by providing modern readers with new and wider intellectual and aesthetic understanding of the embodied myths, for the benefit of both culture and literature. | ar |
