Myths in Modern Times: Pandora
Ancient Greek mythology has presented the modern age with a smorgasbord of grand tales and classic fables that still influence storytelling today. Just one myth that has stood the test of time is that of Pandora, the ‘first woman' created by Zeus and the gods in order to punish mankind following Prometheus's theft of the gift of fire.
Pandora was a beautiful woman who was in possession of a jar – or ‘Pandora's Box'. Myth tells it that she opened this box out of curiosity and, in doing so, unleashed all the evils of man upon the world. Plagues and diseases ravaged the land and only Hope was left contained in the box.
The tale, like many ancient myths, is an epic of good and evil with a moral at its centre. The classicism central to it means it is still effective as a good yarn and means Pandora has endured as part of the Greek pantheon. With the passing of time only enhancing the ancient tales with a sense of magic and myth, writers and artists today still look to them for inspiration.
Instances of Pandora's influence in contemporary art range from entries to the literary, cinematic and musical spheres. Anne Rice named a vampire character and the novel in which she appeared ‘Pandora', while the name is also the title of a Sylvia Fraser biography and characters/places called Pandora frequently appear in manga and anime series.
Science fiction has embraced the loaded name of Pandora to accentuate its own myths. ‘Doctor Who' and ‘Smallville' have referenced it, while anyone who saw ‘Avatar' (and, let's face it, who didn't?) will be aware that it was the name of the mythical planet on which James Cameron's adventure was set. Pandora is also the name of a genuine moon that circles Saturn.
Pandora is also music to the ears when considering song titles by artists as diverse as Madina Lake, Cocteau Twins and Parkway Drive. Meanwhile, Tori Amos updated the myth to a nautical setting to discuss the loss of a child and the glimmer of hope that remains in her song ‘Pandora's Aquarium'.
With the name also lent to the popular collection of Pandora jewellery, which features treasures rather than evils within its box, it seems there is no shortage of different creations Pandora has inspired, demonstrating the legacy of ancient myths in modern times.

Are there any books similar to Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles?
I finished reading the chronicles years ago, and now im interested in reading about more vampires. Because Anne Rice and Dracula by Bram Stoker are my favorites, i'm not into anything like Stephany Myers vampires who..shudder, "sparkle". Can anyone suggest any that I might like?
Based on your favorites, I would suggest the following:
Fiend by Jemiah Jefferson (In nineteenth-century Italy, young Orfeo Ricari teeters on the brink of adulthood. His new tutor instructs him in literature and poetry during the day and guides him in the world of sensual pleasure at night. But a journey to Paris will teach young Orfeo much more. For in Paris he will become a vampire. Told in his own words, this is the story of the life, death, rebirth and education of a vampire.)
Anno Dracula series by Kim Newman (What if Proffessor Van Helsing and friends weren't successful in defeating Count Dracula, as they were in Bram Stoker's Dracula? This is the case in Anno Dracula, and Vlad Tepes is now the consort of the Widow of Windsor while the vampire population of London is increasing... At the same time, Genevieve Dieudonne (vampire) and Charles Beuregard (mortal member of the Diogenes Club) are investigating the Silver Knife murders of vampire girls in Whitechapel.)
Covent with the Vampire, from the Diaries of the Family Dracul series by Jeanne Kalorgridis (Beginning fifty years before the start of Bram Stoker's novel, Covenant with the Vampire introduces us to Dracula's family, who are bound by a covenant as ancient as their blood to serve Dracula and to protect him. Written in diary form, like Dracula, Covenant with the Vampire is the erotic, compulsively readable debut of a major new voice in vampire fiction.)
Fevre Dream by George Martin (When struggling riverboat captain Abner Marsh receives an offer of partnership from a wealthy aristocrat, he suspects something's amiss. But when he meets the hauntingly pale, steely-eyed Joshua York, he is certain. Marsh meant to turn down York's offer. It was too full of secrets that spelled danger. But the promise of both gold and a grand new boat that could make history crushed his resolve--coupled with the terrible force of York's mesmerizing gaze. Not until the maiden voyage of his new sidewheeler Fevre Dream would Marsh realize he had joined a mission both more sinister, and perhaps more noble, than his most fantastic nightmare...and mankind's most impossible dream.)
Those Who Hunt the Night by Barbara Hambly (Oxford professor James Ahser, once an agent for the British government, is forced to help the vampires of Edwardian London, who are being destroyed one by one through exposure to sunlight as they lie sleeping in their coffins. If he does not oblige, his young wife, Lydia, will perish as have many other vampire victims over the years. Accompanied by one of the oldest of the vampires, Simon Ysidro, who has lived in London since the time of Elizabeth I, Asher begins his investigations, learning about the life and culture of vampires.)
Not really Anne Rice-ish, but very good:
Vamped by David Sosnowski (In the 100-odd years since Martin Kowalski became a vampire during World War II, vampires have become the majority of the world's population. Now, regular humans are so rare that most are raised on farms. Martin doesn't have much going for him until the day he discovers a six-year-old human girl fleeing the vampires who killed her mother. Martin takes her in, at first intending that she be a delightful snack. But the little girl quickly grows on him, and he finds himself longing for her laughter more than her blood.)
Vampire Winter (Blaine Kittredge woke up to find that mankind had finally done it. World War Three. Chicago was in ruins, survivors were fleeing the burning cities and the sun was blocked by the nuclear winter that had been created by the bombs. For a amoral vampire this should be a perfect time. But it isn't. Many of the humans have become contaminated, radiation sickness making their blood useless to him. And the heathly humans are in danger from roaming bands of looters and killers, as food and water becomes more and more scarce. Can he learn to feed without killing? Can he learn to protect the humans he needs to live or will he give into his hunger?.)
