This episode departs from the physicality of Hercules’ deeds to discuss a more spiritual tale of love. Eros and Psyche is in many ways a story in opposition to Hercules. For while he remains emotionally unchanged by the end of his tale, the very core of this love story is emotional development.

This season we will be reading from:

• 
  
• ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mythology by Edith Hamilton⁠
  

Adina’s extra reading comes from:

• 
  
• Alchemy of the Soul: The Eros and Psyche Myth as a Guide to Transformation – by Martin Lowenthal
  
• You’re Not What I Expected – by Polly Young-Eisendrath
