Re: Towards a Pan-European Society (4.00 / 4)
The EU refers currently to the post WWII 'pheonix out of the ashes' creation myth. In the future it can be substituted with the classic 'bull raptures bathing nymphette' myth to englobe Turkey and the new ME accession states (Syria, Iraq, Libanon, Israel and Palestine), as well as Morokko, Algeria, Lybia, Tunisia and Egypt. At that point the 'return of the muses' myth would be appropriate and (obviously) Ovid's Eneade. Btw Enea's tomb is near Lavinium. A good place to build sea side summer houses. Here is one of the smaller ones.
