SANDMAN SPECIAL: Death & Psychopomps with Heidi Lange
Manage episode 336745238 series 3012382
On this special pre-SANDMAN show release episode, I am joined by fun and informative guest HEIDI LANGE of Sandmanbooks.com (link below) to wrap our collective heads around psychopomps!
Pyschopomps are an oddly specific yet universal category: Neutral Ferryworkers that guarantee your safe passage from your mortal life to the great beyond. Cultures across the globe and spanning millennia have their own agents of travel from Gaul to Greece, the Etruscans to Egypt, and from the Valkyries to the modern day Grim Reaper.
We cover the broad category of psychopomps through some obscure examples, as well as hit on what makes the heart of the character of DEATH, as depicted in Neil Gaiman's Sandman series, and the books and graphic novels that spawned the character and their mythology.
