Prometheus Rebound and Other Mythology is a verse collection of Greek myths narrated through a series of contemporary parables. A myth is not a myth but rather reality being enacted everyday. G.F. Zaimis appropriates portions of Aeschylus' Prometheus Bound, Shelley's Prometheus Unbound, synchronistic events and the mundane to explore a dialogue between humanity and the divine through mythology. In the sonnet cycle written as a tragedy that imbues the book's title, Prometheus Rebound, the metaphor of fire is juxtaposed as vanity and deceit. It recalls how the titan steals again from the gods to give to mankind without imparting expanded consciousness and the repercussions of the universal law of Cause and Effect. Two poetic forms, the sonnet and the newly designed triptych, delineate the book's mythology. The triptych, inspired by the Homeric epigram, is a poetic hybrid premised upon the visual and literary arts. Its shape distills thought that recounts impressions and incidents as rhythmic, mural imagery in bits of three brushed onto paper.Each narrative recounts fragments of memory and how life perpetuates the expansion of individual and social consciousness. It is here mythos and logos come together through the eyes of poetry integrated by philosophy.
