Myth
Myth, the much-anticipated debut collection from the multi-talented Terese Mason Pierre, weaves between worlds (‘real’ and ‘imaginary’) unearthing the unsettling: our jaded and joyful relationships to land, ancestry, trauma, self, and future.In three movements and two interludes, the poems in Myth move symphonically from tropical islands to barren cities, from lucid dreams to the mysteries of reality, from the sea to the cosmos.A dynamic mix of speculative poetry and ecstatic lyricism, the otherworldly and the sublime, Pierre’s poems never stray too long or too far from the spell of unspoiled nature: “The palm trees nod / at the ocean / the ocean does / what it always does / trusts the moon completely.”Friends ‘with benefits’ tour the wonders of Grenada’s landscapes; extraterrestrials visit the Caribbean and the locals don’t seem phased; red birds “saunter airily like tourists,” La Diablesse lures helpless suitors to their dooms.This collection asks: How can myths manifest themselves in our daily lives?What do we actually mean when we say we love ourselves and others? And how do we pursue/create futures that honour our truths, histories and legacies?

What is the fuel myth?
The fuel myth is the misconception that certain foods or supplements can boost metabolism or burn fat, leading to weight loss. This myth often promotes the idea that specific foods or supplements can magically help individuals lose weight without the need for a balanced diet and regular exercise. In reality, weight loss is achieved through a combination of a healthy diet, regular physical activity, and a sustainable lifestyle. It is important to be wary of any claims that suggest a quick fix or miracle solution for weight loss.

Myth Theorized
Myth Theorized provides a survey of some key figures and topics in the modern study of myth.The first part of the book discusses the psychoanalysis of myth including a chapter on the extraordinary changes that psychoanalytic theory has undergone, and one on Otto Rank and his break with Freud which helped transform the focus of psychoanalysis, including myth, from the Oedipal stage to the pre-Oedipal one.This section finishes with a chapter which argues that Freud and Jung are more akin than opposed.The next section looks at hero myths including a detailed history of the study of hero myths, and surveys approaches to hero myths by Otto Rank, Joseph Campbell and Lord Raglan.The author then applies Rank and Raglan to the life of the first king of Israel, Saul, showing how their theories transform the figure to whom they are applied.The following part of the book considers the relationship of myth to natural science including a discussion of the range of views that have arisen over the past 150 years - those of EB Tylor, JG Frazer, Claude Levi-Strauss and Karl Popper.The next section covers myth and politics with an assessment of Bruce Lincoln's Theorizing Myth and Robert Ellwood's The Politics of Myth.The final chapter in this section argues that the theories of Frazer, Rene Girard and Walter Burkert all make violence in religion natural rather than unnatural.The final part of the book discusses the Jungian concept of synchronicity, uses DW Winnicott's idea of make-believe to support the argument that Hollywood stars and their treatment as gods can be said to being divinity back to the world, and asks whether James Lovelock has brought myth back to the world through the Gaia theory.

Is this airplane myth true?
No, the airplane myth that states that flushing the toilet on an airplane can cause waste to be sucked out of the toilet and onto passengers is not true. Airplane toilets are designed with a vacuum system that prevents this from happening. The waste is stored in a tank and only emptied by ground crew after the flight. So passengers do not need to worry about this myth when using the restroom on an airplane.

Is the hymen a myth?
The concept of the hymen as a physical barrier that is broken during first sexual intercourse is a myth. The hymen is actually a thin, stretchy tissue that surrounds or partially covers the vaginal opening, and it can vary in shape and size. It can be stretched or torn through various activities such as exercise, tampon use, or even just normal physical activity. Additionally, not all people with vaginas are born with a hymen, and some may have a hymen that is so small it does not cover the vaginal opening at all. Therefore, the idea that the hymen is a reliable indicator of virginity is not accurate.
