Answer:

I would like to see more of Zeus in other epic and literary works because I feel as if there is never much talk about him in depth. His purpose in most just seems to be as the father of another child, or as the betrayer of his wife. All I really know about Zeus is his strength, backstory, family, specific powers, and the fact that he has slept around with many women. I would like to see if there are any other works where there is more to him than just all of that. I would like to know what kind of person Zeus is in his free time or if he has any thoughts when it comes to himself or helping others who ask of his assistance. I believe that Zeus would be interesting to see more of, especially since he is so powerful and there is little talk of the accomplishments he has made aside from his children.

I would like to see more of Hades in other epic poems and literary works. He has had so many different depictions and story-lines and I find it all to be interesting. He is depicted in the tale Persephone as being lonely and just wanting the company. In tales based more around his other brothers, however, he is shown as more of a heartless character who has never had feelings other than vile ones in his life. People have so many different takes on Hades and I feel like this makes him one of the most interesting Greek gods out there. He is such a complex character that some people don't even know how to universally describe him the same, and I think I would like to here everybody's different sides and views towards him.

Creating arguments follow the instruction for each of the problems below. Construct a modus ponens syllogism to support this con
Nonamiya [84]

Modus Ponens for the statement is, " Recession will be there in the economy next year." A syllogism is "there is a decline in economic activity hence every economy would be in recession next year".

<u>Explanation </u>

  • Modus Ponens is the rule of inference or rule of logic in which there are one premise and consequent results of the premise. There is a conditional statement which means that if an event 1 happens then event 2 would happen and if event 1 happens then event 2 would be inferred as the consequent result. For instance, If A connotes B and A is considered to be true then obviously by the rule of Modus Ponens B is also true.
  • A syllogism is deductive reasoning where inference is drawn after assessing two other ideas or premises. For instance, all men can speak therefore Tom can also speak. The premises is all men  can speak and Tom speaks and the conclusion is ll men speak and hence Tom can also speak.
  • In the above sentence, the economy will be in recession next year the Modus Ponens is Recession will be there in every economy next year. There is one premise which is The economy will be in recession and the consequent premise is that recession will be there in the economy. Syllogism revolves around two premises and one conclusion, therefore, the economy is premise number one and every economy is premise number two Therefore the conclusion is as above.
