Reimagination of Greek Mythology in Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson and the Olympians Serie

Abstract

This study aims to illustrate the significance of Greek mythology in this modern world and how it is reimagined by the American author Rick Riordan in his pentalogy, Percy Jackson, and The Olympian Series. In his novels, Riordan portrays the Greek gods centered in the focal point of the modern civilization, guiding the modern man in all his endeavors. He presents to us an out of the ordinary scenario, where the Greek myths are embedded in the core of modern American society and how the pop culture and modernity is mixed with the archaic myths of Greece.
