What is ironic about the “Titanic” story in terms of the Greek myth that is named after?

1 answer:

3 0

What I got was : basically, 'titan' in the word titanic means gigantic. huge. titans in Greek mythology were strong, powerful, immortal, and god-like deities, and they were brought down by the Gods. That is the greek mythology that the word 'Titanic' is derived from.

What I would consider ironic and quite frankly, interesting, is the fact that the Titanic (ship) was large and strong—and it sunk, never to be seen ever again, it's glory reduced to nothingness. And the same goes for the titans : they were glorious, arrogant, and huge, and even then they were sunk, or rather, lowered by the Gods of Greek Mythology.

You have learned about several characteristics that knights are expected to have and display. Explain what you think is the most

Burka [1]

The most important quality of a knight is their “strong ideal of equality and defense of the weak”. Among the many other characteristics of a knight I find this one the most important because a knight was supposed to be a figure of justice and protection, and given the fact that throughout history there has always been evil and evildoers, there should be a person who protects the weak and poor from the abusive and rich. In the following quotation from the King Arthur Story:

“So Arthur was crowned king to defend his country from the Saxons, people who were trying to take over their land, and fight for the victory of the Logres, with his trusty Excalibur which he receives from the Lady of the Lake. As he grows older, Merlin helps him become a wise king for the Logres and shapes Arthur to become the wisest and fairest king.” (King Arthur’s story excerpt)

Even though Arthur was crowned king, he honors his knightly past representing the same virtues and morals expressed above as the most important for a knight, “strong ideal of equality and defense of the weak” and “to be a figure of justice and protection”.
