Answer:

The Greek stories show that love was mostly around passion and not of the caring love. Zeus, for example, the king of the gods made stupid things to sleep with girls; once he turned into a white bull just to carry away a woman. He even turned into rain just to enter a woman's room.

In Perseus story, that happens when the king of the island Perseus and his mother, Danae, lives wants to marry her. However, he is a cruel man and Danae refuses to marry him. The king, then, sends Perseus away from his home to face the Medusa.

In Perseus story and in Zeus example, it is clear how Greeks tend to see love: only beauty matters, and the lover can try everything to reach the loved one. Even then, the Greeks show how tragic can be a blind passion, the lover who doesn't truly care about the loved one tend to perish. In Perseus story, the hero brings back the Medusa head and saves his mother from the king, who was mad when Perseus came back from his adventure and tried to kill Danae. Of course, the passions Zeus persecuted just ended badly for the women, since he was the king of the gods.

There are other examples of caring love, personified in Homero Odyssey, for example. Odisseu took 20 years to come back home, and his wife, Penelope, waited all those years for him.

Here is the answer! I turned it in and got 100% on my unit test! please trust me and this is not copied! I wrote it by myself! 6th grade english assignment! With evidence!!!

Greeks viewed heroes in a way that is different from what we view as heroes today. In the Greek myths, greeks thought that a god or goddess could be a powerful ally or a terrible foe. The Greeks believed that these beings caused everything that happened in their world. Some of the heroes in the Greek Myths were Zeus, Hera, Gray-eyed Athena, Aphrodite, Eros (who is also called Cupid), Hermes, Poseidon, and Hades.

The king of these gods, the most powerful of them all, was called Zeus. The Greeks imagined him as a tall, powerful man with long hair and a flowing beard. He was the one who judged between opposing gods, and, when he was angry, he spoke in thunder and cast lightning bolts across the sky. Hera was the wife of Zeus. But while she could be charming and kind if she was unhappy, she became bitter and spiteful. Athena and Aphrodite were two of Zeus’s daughters. Athena was the goddess of wisdom who was noble, and brave. Aphrodite was the goddess of love who was so beautiful that everyone who looked at her loved her. Eros was a rascal whose arrows caused gods and men alike to fall in love with the next person they met, no matter how much trouble it might cause. Hermes would bear the message whenever Zeus wished to send news. Poseidon was the ruler of the sea, and Hades was the grim ruler of the underworld.

The Greeks believed that many of these gods lived on a snow-capped summit called Mount Olympus, where they met from time to time in Zeus’s banquet hall to discuss the cases of men.  The Greeks also believed that the gods and goddesses sometimes came down from Mount Olympus to walk among people on earth, helping those they approved and punishing the evil. Their help might come in the form of a gift, such as powerful armor and a firm shield, or a solution to a problem. Punishment might mean turning a person into an animal to teach him a lesson or causing a storm at sea to drive a hero’s ship off its route.

All in all, some of the powerful allies could include Athena, Aphrodite, and Hermes. Some of the terrible foes could include Cupid who was the rascal. I think all of the Greeks were powerful because on page 112 it says, "Greeks also believed that the gods and goddesses sometimes came down from Mount Olympus to walk among people on earth, helping those they favored, and punishing the wicked." That means that all (or most) of the gods and goddesses were powerful and helpful, although sometimes when they got mad, they could become evil and spiteful. In conclusion, I think Greek thought that ideal heroes were people who were powerful allies or terrible foes and people that can control their surroundings with their own personal power.

What is the main idea of characteristics of Indian literature
padilas [110]

Answer:

<h3>Indian literature:</h3>

•Religion.

•Deeds.

•Human Values.

•Obedience.

•Bravery.

•Love.

•Morality.

•Poetic Form.

Explanation:

<h3 /><h3>Religion:</h3>

Based on the ancient history of India dominated by Brahmins, the upper educated ruling priestly class, Religion (Spirituality) was the primary concern.

Attaining heaven (Mukti) and Reincarnation are the two main focus of Hinduism. Charity (Dana) is the concept that is emphasized in Vedas to attain heaven according to the doctrine of Karma.

<h3>Deeds:</h3>

Deeds of the past determine the state of the present’ is the concept of reincarnation. If noble deeds are done in the past, noble birth in the present is assured. Ramayana is the story of Ram, the reincarnation of Lord Vishnu.

<h3>Human values:</h3>

Human values are also a characteristic of Indian literature within the broader web of ‘Religion’. Obedience- to the one above, to keep up the words spoken i.e not breaking promises at any cost, bravery- in war are the important values imparted through the sacred books and epics.

<h3>Obedience:</h3>

Obedience to the above – it can mean a person in power or an elder person. As in Ramayana, Ram obeyed his father Dasharatha when asked to go into exile and Hanuman (an ape hero) obeys Sugriva (the ape king) immediately when he was asked to go in search of Sita, Rama’s wife.

Keeping up promises at any cost is seen in Ramayana where Kaikeyi, one of the three wives of Dasharatha gets two promises according to which she wants Rama to be sent in exile and her son Bharata to be crowned as a king, which the king fulfils and Rama, the first legal son to be crowned is sent in exile and Bharata is asked to be crowned even at the cost of his life.

<h3>Bravery:</h3>

Bravery in war front is seen in both Ramayana and Mahabharata which involves the two great epic wars; The Ramayana war and The Mahabharata war- battle at Kurukshetra where the army of both the parties [(Rama and Ravana in Ramayana) and (Pandavas and Kauravas in Mahabharata)] fight bravely for victory.

<h3>Love:</h3>

Love’ is one of the major characteristic focused on Indian literature. All forms of love as Parental love (In Janaka, king of Mithila made him accept Sita; found in-furrow of the field, as his daughter and Dasharatha dies after Rama is sent to exile), Marital love (In Sita, that she accompanied her husband Rama into exile), love of brothers (In Lakshmana that he accompanied Rama into exile and in Bharata that he rejected the crown) and love of friends (in Karna that he stands by Kauravas against his own brothers) are included.

<h3>Morality:</h3>

Virtue rewarded and vice punished is the justice done according to the Dharma, which is a characteristic of Indian literature. Ravana and Kauravas vices of Ramayana and Mahabharata were defeated in war and were killed.

Indian literature reflects the caste system that existed during that period. It is according to Vedas, people are divided into four Varna based on their profession; Brahmins (that includes priests and learned men), Kshatriyas (that includes aristocrats, knights, soldiers and other administrators), Vaishya (that include peasants and businessmen) and Shudras (who were employed in other menial labours. This caste system is employed in the two epics, Ramayana and Mahabharata.

<h3>Poetic form:</h3>

The poetic form was considered as the standard written form in ancient India, that Indian literature was in verses. Ramayana has 24,000 verses and Mahabharata has over 100,000 verses that it takes time for readers to understand them. Sacred books were also in the poetic form called Mantras that are recited during worship. All these forms the characteristic of Indian literature.

<h3><em><u>Hop</u></em><em><u>e</u></em><em><u> it</u></em><em><u> helps</u></em><em><u> you</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u>.</u></em></h3><h3><em><u>Y-</u></em><em><u>your</u></em><em><u> welcome</u></em><em><u> in</u></em><em><u> advance</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u>.</u></em></h3><h3><u>(。ŏ﹏ŏ)</u><u>(ㆁωㆁ)</u></h3>

PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINIEST!!!!!!!!!!
Elza [17]

Answer:

13, 14, and 15 first for some reasons lol!

13.The text structure of this paragraph. The main idea of this paragraph is mimic octopus and the facts are it can change it's color also its shape and behavior. It is able to imitate 15 different species and this paragraph is a sequence.

14.He wants to wait because he has been doing school eight hours straight also he needs to clean he's room and take Boomer for a walk. Also, he feels that he is tired because he has been doing school for eight hours straight so that makes him tired so he needs to take a break so later he can do homework and be more focused.

15.I think because most authors come from different childhoods and stuff like that. Also, if they come from different backgrounds the might take a facts different and some sad facts might hurt them a lot because they come from a family or a background that is all full of joy then when they hear something really sad it could hurt them. Authors write very different stories (that might write sad stories cause they had a sad child hood so the take facts and stuff differently) some use the sad events to make a good story. Some authors use happy events. That how I think that different authors might interpret facts in multiple ways.

Hope this helps :)))
