Dr. Moiya McTier & Dr. Emily Zarka bring their unmatched expertise in Mythology & Folklore to this new PBS Digital series, FATE & FABLED. The show digs into the stories and characters of mythologies, both ancient and modern, from all around the world – exploring the origins of these tales and their lasting influence. In this episode, we examine the Fates – three shadowy figures who seem to have a near omnipresent influence in the goings-on throughout the Greek mythical universe – and who show up in stories and religions from cultures whose time and place are far removed from the ancient Greeks.
