The worlds of Homer’s The Iliad and The Odyssey are often harsh, with mankind being essentially at the will of the gods and prone to failure. To that end, even the best among men in these works have their own flaws – Achilles and Odysseus respectively provide that sense of romantic antiheroism inherent to Homeric works. Whereas modern heroism values moral and ethical virtue as part of being a hero, the Homeric ideal of heroism is actually quite anti-heroic. Greek heroes do not have to be the most ethical or civilized; they just have to possess supreme bravery, strength, military ...

At that time, we were all manga and pop music oriented. This seemed out of place. She said that it was her ...

Introduction

There is no doubt that advertisements have meaning: this is the fundamental purpose of advertisements in today’s culture—to impart meaning on the viewer. However, through a thorough understanding of semiotics, it becomes clear that sometimes the meanings contained in advertisements are deeper and more complex than they seem at first glance. Everything that is produced in culture has a cultural meaning—some things, however, are much more culturally resonant than others (Chandler). Some thinkers have even suggested that all cultural realities and productions can be understood as a kind of cultural communication—and that this communication may ...

‘Antigone’ by Sophocles:
Analyzing the importance of Teiresias in Greek tragedy

Photographs are also very important in evaluating the psychology of the person taking the photograph. The media artifact in my discussion is photographs. The following essay discusses photographs under the feminist theory and the queer ...

The Aeneid is a one of the most renowned Latin poems which was written by Virgil between 29 and 19 BC depicting a legendary tale of a Trojan named Aeneas who left his city with many Trojans after a war and found the Roman Empire (Fagles, 2006). When one reads the poem and understands the story, there are several themes which come alive with its well-written lines. And extreme violence is definitely one of those central themes. But as claimed by most, the violence being talked in The Aeneid is borne out ...

The central themes of one’s identity, and strength and skill are interwoven in the characters and the plot of the poem “Beowulf.” The setting of the poem and the time period in which it is set both characterize the identity of individuals is a string of lineage, where individuals are judged in society according to the repute of their ancestors, and the strength and skill they possess.

Election of Abraham Lincoln

In my opinion, the most important factor that led to the Civil War was the election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860. At this point, there was already incredible tension existing between the North and the South surrounding their different economies and the abolitionist movement; Lincoln's election seemed to be the final nail in the coffin before secession was to occur (Chadwick, 2010). Lincoln was already known to be vehemently against slavery, and many southerners feared he would simply work toward its extinction. Though the government tried to compromise with initiatives like the Corwin Amendment, it did nothing to stop ...

In The Iliad, many of the characters suffer greatly as a result of their hubris, or pride. Many of the warriors and characters of the Iliad are very sure of themselves, and believe that their way is the best way. However, as the story progresses, ...

Introduction

Russia was a former member or perhaps leader of the fallen Soviet Union.
