The answer is; To give depth to the new work

Providing old myths into new works would help the readers understand why a certain character in the new work choose to pursue a certain action.

The logical reasoning between the myth as a cause that lead to the character's action would force the readers to pay attention to small details of the myth. This will give more depth to the new work.

What were some of the main differences between the dutch, french, and english colonial efforts in the new world. (Explain in 3-5
Sedaia [141]

The Dutch and French approach to colonization were much different than English efforts. One area where this is evident is each groups relationship with Native American groups. The English consistently struggled with developing positive relationships with Natives, as the first permanent English settlement (Jamestown) saw constant fighting between the English and Powahatan Confederacy. However, the Dutch and French became allies with the Native Americans. The French were able to establish a very successful fur trade with the Huron tribe.

Why were critics expressing discontent with society in the 1950s
-BARSIC- [3]
The 1950s was a time of widespread fear and anxiety - the two great powers, the USA and the USSR, were held together in M.A.D. (Mutually Assured Distruction), thanks to the US dropping the two nuclear bombs on Japan, fascinating Soviet scientists into developing their own Nuclear weapons program. 
Joseph McCarthy, a US Senator from Wisconsin from 1947 until his death in 1957, played a huge role in establishing a sense of uneasiness and paranoia among Americans in the 1950s, at the possibility of spies lurking within society. Individuals became more individualistic, and trusted authorities less and less - domestic crimes, for example, were often solves by individuals rather than these individuals requesting help from the police. Actors, those in the entertainment industry as a whole, and politicians were by far the most targeted by McCarthy's policies of kidnapping, torturing and extracting information, if there was a suspicion that those being kidnapped were in fact Soviet spies. The overwhelming majority were not, but there were still a handful that were. The government of the USA attempted to hide the innocent victims of these kidnappings, but were not very successful, and as such, individuals became extremely weary of authorities.

To sum up:
- Cold War begins, USA and USSR battle each other with espionage and intelligence rather than all-out warfare
- American government becomes increasing suspicious of spies within Entertainment industry and internal politics
- These paranoia-inducing policies were widely unsuccessful, and as such, fermented distrust for authorities within American society, and among societies of American allies, who were also suspicious of spying.

If you need further information, a quick search of McCarthyism or the 1950s social context of America should help.
