AB Louise Glück provides a compelling example of Classical Receptions in contemporary poetry.Hence, this paper aims at discussing Glück’s psychoanalytic interpretation of the so-calledHomeric Hymn to Demeter and «Persephone the Wanderer», a poem pertaining to Glück’sAverno (2006), attempting to demonstrate the appropriation of the myth of Demeter andPersephone from a psychoanalytic approach. After an introduction to the Homeric Hymn toDemeter (Foley, 1994), and Louise Glück and her poem «Persephone the Wanderer», I willcompare the myth of Demeter and Persephone in the Homeric Hymn to Demeter with Glück’s«Persephone the Wanderer». From a psychoanalytic perspective, Demeter’s psychological statewill be addressed while pointing out her motherhood and her grief, and then I will associatethe concept of narcissism to both Demeter and Hades in Glück’s poem and its impact onPersephone.
