Comparison Of Prometheus: Self-Reliance And Civil Disobedience
Prometheus is a wise young man. He knows more than most people who live in his world. He might even know more than the scholars. But he is not allowed to step outside of the box and think. His thoughts are being kept confined and when he finally breaks out of the box he is practically forced to leave. Leaving was the best decision for him. Leaving his world allowed him to make his own choices and he could rebel from the rules he was forced to live by his entire life. Prometheus would have found loved “Self-Reliance” and “Civil Disobedience” if he found them while looking through the manuscripts. He would have been able to relate well to both essays.

He worked on his creation in silence and alone. He adored Gaea when no one else was around and he never told anyone that he liked thought someone was more friendly than another person.

He would have gained so much knowledge from the essays and he would have learned that everything that he did was okay. He is the only one that could have said something was wrong and no one could tell him different. The essays would have been very good for him to read and he could find himself within the words of Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau. It would be a very good experience for him and his
