Episode description

The first speech of Prometheus Unbound.  Relation of exposition to imminence in Greek tragedy and in Shelley.  Prometheus's asking for exposition is the beginning of the action that will unthrone Jupiter.  Some background on the relation of Christian mythology to the mythology of classical antiquity.  Prometheus as Satan and Christ.  Landscape and subjectivity.  Return to Mont Blanc and a quick exposition (for more detailed expositions see older podcasts, especially from the close reading course).
