|---|---|---|---|---|
| This chapter deals with the context of the use of the name Herakles/Hercules in the music scene in the twenty-first century. The chapter will examine lyrics and video clips (where available) by musicians from different languages (English and Portuguese) to understand how Hercules has been used by these artists: what they picked from the hero and what they left behind. Examples focused on are Hercules & Love Affair, the rap group Traffik & DJ Pro Style and the Brazilian rapper C4bal. The discussion will attempt to determine whether Hercules is only the myth or whether there is a more specific classical reference and reflect on why Hercules and not other heroes is referred to by considering the different meanings and referents of Hercules. | 661.74 KB | Adobe PDF |
