We are pleased to share the latest research by Visiting Scholar Joel Christensen. Based on a recent presentation, “Emerging from the Cyclops’ Cave: Odysseus and Walter White” is a work-in-progress paper that challenges us to rethink the end of the Odyssey and appreciate more fully the artistry of Breaking Bad, one of the most critically acclaimed television dramas of our time.
