Proserpina's Promise
Author(s):
Betty Holmes Cochran
The Greek myths are rich with fascinating stories and have stimulated the imaginations of playwrights for centuries. Here is another play which brings to our generation one of the most beloved Greek tales. When Proserpina is kidnapped by Pluto, King of the Underworld, the world becomes a barren wasteland. Proserpina is warned not to eat anything while she is held captive in the underworld but, in a moment of weakness, she eats six pomegranate seeds. Pluto finally agrees to let Proserpina go back to earth six months out of the year. When she arrives, she brings with her each year the promise of spring.
