My essay on a Greek mythical character is about the infamous Zeus. Zeus is the god of the sky, lightning and the thunder in Ancient Greek religion and legends, and ruler of all the gods on Mount Olympus. Zeus is the sixth child of Kronos and Rhea, king and queen of the Titans. Zeus is featured in many other Greek tales, however, they’re very different from one another. In most traditions, he is married to Hera, by whom he is usually said to have fathered Ares, Hebe, and Hephaestus. At the oracle of Dodona, his consort was said to be Dionee, by whom the Iliad states that he fathered Aphrodite. Zeus was also infamous for his erotic escapades. He’s also quite famous with the goddesses, Zeus had made love to one of the Pleiades, Maia, who gave birth to the tricky messenger of the gods, Hermes. Before Zeus was god of gods, his father, Cronus was the god of all gods until he was overthrown by Zeus. Zeus’s sons were Ares, the god of war, Hebe, the goddess of youth, and Hephaestus, the god of fire. Hephaestus limped whenever he walked, on some accounts it was because he was born lame so his mother, Hera, threw him off the side of Mount Olympus. According to others he acquired the limp because he interceded in a fight between Zeus and Hera, and Zeus took him by the foot and threw him from Olympus to the earth far below. In some stories Zeus was overthrown by Typhon, a gigantic son of Gaia, the Earth, and Tartarus. Typhon was born to avenge the Titans and depose the Olympians. Though some believe Zeus was undoubtably the victor.
Spider Man became who he is by accident, after being bitten by a radioactive spider during a class field trip. The spider’s venom formed a mutation in his body that gave him superpowers of superior strength/speed and the ability to shoot spider webs from his wrists. His ability to shoot spider webs allows him to, climb walls, swing from roof tops and stop villains by entangling them in spider webs. Tony Stark began his transformation after his army convoy was ambushed in Afghanistan and he was kidnapped by terrorists. The terrorists negotiated he’d be set free if he built a deadly missile for them. Tony disobeyed the terrorist’s orders and instead built a full armor shield around his entire body. With the use of this special shield and some weaponry, he was able to escape the terrorist camp without severe injuries and return home. He then modifies this armor suite by retrofitting rockets onto it so he can fly.
Purposes of Bradford is to educate the new generation about the history of the pilgrim and to convince the new generation to follow the Puritan principles.
Explanation:
In chapter six of the book, William Bradford states that the reason he wrote was so that the Pilgrim descendants would know and appreciate the difficulties their ancestors faced.
An indirect characterization could be that she is greedy, selfish, and impatient. We can see this in how she goes to the Devil to make a deal with him on her own, rather than waiting for her husband to do it. We can also see this in the fact the story says she keeps things from him, even though they're are married. This could show how she only desires things for herself and doesn't want to share. Hope this helps! :)
