MetroActive Movies | The Brandon Teena Story
Richard von Busack's article about the movie incorporates greek mythology and Stanley Kubrick into the review.
http://www.metroactive.com/papers/sfmetro/02.15.99/brandonteenstory-9905.html

Extractions: This Charming Man: The charismatic life and horrific death of Brandon Teena The tragic 'Brandon Teena Story' By Richard von Busack In one version of an ancient Greek myth, the clairvoyant Tiresias was transformed from male to female. Jupiter then struck him blind as punishment for answering the question whether men or women enjoy sex more. Those born between sexes, as Teena Brandon was in Nebraska in 1973, have a sort of secret knowledge that the rest of us can only guess at it, bounded as we are by the fact of our own gender. The envy that knowledge arouses can be fatal. The young Brandon, who switched his/her name to Brandon Teena when taking a male identity, is the subject of the harrowing documentary The Brandon Teena Story , playing at the Castro Feb. 19-25. The documentary is an obsessive, deeply researched study of the last year of Brandon's lifea life that ended with murder just weeks after his/her 21st birthday. Filmmakers Susan Muska and Greta Olafsdottir interview the dozen or so people who knew Brandon in the small town of Falls City, Neb. The scrupulous details make this story all the more sickening. The worst part of the film is an audiotape and transcription of Brandon's interview with the sheriff, shortly after Brandon was driven out to a field and raped twice on Christmas Eve 1993. On the tape, then-Sheriff Charles Laux of Richardson County makes it plain that he has no compassion for freaks and makes the experience as degrading as possible for Brandon.

The Muses
The Muses from greek mythology. The original number of muses and their namesvaries in earlier times as their evolution blossomed in greek mythology.
http://www.eliki.com/portals/fantasy/circle/define.html

Extractions: Bartholomeus Spranger (XVI cent.) The Muses are the Greek goddesses who preside over the arts and sciences and inspire those who excel at these pursuits. Daughters of Zeus , king of the gods, and Mnemosyne ("memory"), they were born at Pieria at the foot of Mount Olympus. Their nurse, Eupheme, raised them along with her son, Crotus the hunter, who was transported into the sky as Sagittarius upon his death. Their name (akin to the Latin mens and English mind ) denotes 'memory' or 'a reminder', since in the earliet times poets, having no books to read from, relied on their memories. The Romans identified the Muses with certain obscure Italian water-goddesses, the Camenae. The original number of muses and their names varies in earlier times as their evolution blossomed in Greek mythology. At first, three muses were worshipped on Mount Helicon in Boeotia: Melete ("meditation"), Mneme ("memory"), and Aoede ("song"). Another three were worshipped at Delphi and their names represented the names of the strings of a lyre: Nete, Mese, and Hypate. Several other versions were worshipped until the Greeks finally established the nine muses in mythology as:

Queer History And Literature
Exploration of idealized friendship as coded reference to homosexual desire, with examples from greek mythology.
http://www.infopt.demon.co.uk/pastor07.htm

Extractions: The strictures against an uncritical acceptance of the superficial conventionalism and innocence of the beautiful boy motif apply with equal force against an uncritical acceptance of the superficial and "purely virtuous" themes of the Renaissance friendship tradition. Nearly every praise of friendship in Renaissance literature, be it trite and stale or genuinely moving, allots a line or two for an allusion to the friendship of Achilles and Patroclus. Yet in the view of Shakespeare himself, the relationship between these two men was that between a bugger and his catamite. Thersites says to Patroclus in Troilus and Cressida , "Thou are thought to be Achilles' male varlet." Patroclus queries, "Male varlet, you rogue! What's that?" and Thersites answers, "Why, his masculine whore." The Renaissance friendship tradition two sharply differentiated philosophical sources - in Plato and Aristotle - and a number of contributing . The dullest and most often repeated cliché in friendship literature is the "catalogue of famous friends" that originates in the eighth fragment of Bion, in which he praises the men who have found mutual love: Achilles & Patroclus, Orestes & Pylades, and Theseus & Pirithous. Marsilio Ficino in his Commentary on Plato's

Historical Records Of Water-Beings
Brief accounts of waterbeings in Chinese folklore, early Indian mythology, greek mythology and African mythology.
http://www.water-consciousness.com/4history.htm

Extractions: WATER ~ CONSCIOUSNESS HISTORICAL RECORDS OF WATER-BEINGS Beings who lived in Water, half-humanoid and half-fish, have been credited with the founding and origins of many civilizations on Earth. WATER-BEINGS have been described as responsible for teaching and assisting humanity in areas such as agriculture, arts, cosmology, laws, mathematics, temple-building and music. Robert Temple in his book "The Sirius Mystery" (1997, Destiny Books, Rochester, pp.273-315) offers an extensive research on the records of fish-tailed water creatures in past civilizations, with particular emphasis on the modern 'Dogon Tribe' of Mali, Africa. Therefore, we will only give an overview of the wide distribution of the records available and we refer the reader to Temple's book for details. FUXI & CANG JING (or NU GUA). Bas relief of a Chinese tomb, second century A.D. Chinese Tradition considers FUXi and his wife Nu Gua (or Cang Jing) to be the Founders of Chinese Civilization. (From Robert Temple's: "The Sirius Mystery", 1997, Fig. 50). The most ancient records are perhaps those found in Chinese Folklore. Water-Beings such as river gods, supernatural fish and water spirits have been a part of Chinese tradition for millennia.

Greek Mythology - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia
greek mythology. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. greek mythology is theset of myths which come from the religion of ancient Hellenic civilization.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_mythology

Extractions: Greek mythology is the set of myths which come from the religion of ancient Hellenic civilization . These stories were familiar to all ancient Greeks and, although some thinkers professed skepticism, they provided the people with both rituals and history . Like the religions of most of their neighbors, the Greeks believed in gods and goddesses who were associated with specific aspects of life. For example, Aphrodite was the goddess of love and sex, while Ares was the god of war and Hades the god of the dead. Although there were hundreds of beings that could be considered "gods" in one sense or another, most figured only into obscure bits of folklore, perhaps as fragments of remembrances of more ancient deities. Actual worship was centered on only a few gods, mostly the thirteen Olympians. The Olympians were the center of large pan-Hellenic cults, although Persephone (patroness of the Eleusinian mysteries ) is a prominent exception. Many regions and even individual villages had their own cults centered on nymphs or minor deities virtually unknown elsewhere. Foreign gods like
