    Zeus is not omnipotent as he is most often perceived. He is not the most powerful Greek God, but simply the one who happened to fulfill the prophecy of Cronus’ fall. Although, he was the one appointed the task of releasing his brothers and sisters by prophecy, it was by chance that he happened to be the son that was saved. All the children of Cronus were equal, and Zeus needs the help of all of his siblings to defeat Cronus. The prophecy said a son would be stronger than Cronus but never omnipotent or stronger than other gods. In addition, Zeus did not demonstrate the power of creation alone. In one story, Epimetheus and Prometheus take the responsibility of creating mankind. In another story, it is all the gods that made mankind from metals.…

    A siren; part woman, part bird; a mythical creature who is one of many sea nymphs. Sirens can be portrayed differently as each author/artist creates a new profile for them in each of their pieces of art. Tone is created in the actions of the sirens in many different works like The Odyssey, by Homer, Margaret Atwood’s “Siren Song,” and John William Waterhouse’s Ulysses and The Sirens. Some could be similar to others or they could differ. The sirens in the epic poem, The Odyssey; Margaret Atwood’s poem, “Siren Song;” and Waterhouse’s Ulysses and the Sirens all convey a specific tone that depicts the sirens as confident, threatening, and secretive.…

    “Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear.” -- Ambrose Redmon Consequently, the soul stirring and heart wrenching motion picture of “Remember the Titans” depicts so eloquently the sacrifices one has to make to stand up firmly in support of their most cherished, morally sound beliefs, and for some it causes him or her to examine whether their beliefs are worth preserving. Thus, this tale of tremendous victory against overwhelming odds is an excellent reminder that valor is a virtue that overpowers paralyzing fear. Because of integration, T.C. Williams successfully merged two high school football teams into one team, which became an unstoppable force in Alexandria, Virginia…

    Tragic Hero Archetype

Shakespeare’s tragic heroes were specifically designed to elicit pity and fear from the audience and to really feel their downfall. In Julius Caesar, the protagonist Brutus is a well-made example. But the character of which the play is named after is often not considered as one. Although the character of Julius Caesar does not follow all the requirements of the traditional Shakespearean tragic hero such as Brutus, the titular character still should be considered one.…
