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.

Answer:

The Plato answer is

Your answer should address the following points:

Name the god that you’d be most interested in reading about in a fictional work and explain why.

Or would you like to read a literary work that had references to Athena, the goddess of wisdom?

Include a description of the god or goddess you choose.

List any epics they were a part of and whether or not you have read them.

Answer:The excerpt that best expresses the theme that all living things are a part of, and are guided by, a natural purpose is:

She's only filled with an old blind wish. It isn't even hers but came to her

Explanation:"The Turtle" is a poem by author Mary Oliver. The speaker in the poem talks of the beauty and effortlessness of turtle laying eggs in the sand. It's a sacred action, which the turtle itself cannot understand since the drive to do it does not come consciously. It is a purely instinctive drive, guided by nature. The speaker admires the turtle's determination and patience in completing the task while remaining unaware of itself as an individual. The turtle sees itself as the world, and the world as itself.
