English

An epic hero is a man whose fortune is brought about by his own characteristics. These characteristics are usually strength, loyalty, courage, and intelligence.

Odysseus is a clear example of an epic hero because he demonstrates courage and intelligence. For example, in the Cyclops' cave, all his men were afraid and panicked, but not him. He kept calm and confronted the Cyclops. Then, when it asked for his name, he said it was "Nobody", so when he stabbed the Cyclops eye, which is another display of immense courage, he could not say who did it.

Which is a difference of between fables and legends
frosja888 [35]

Both fables and legends are literary genres that are used to narrate stories. Fables are fictional stories whose characters are animals, plants or inanimate objects. Legends, on the other hand, are stories perceived or believed to have happened some time in human history and there is certain doubt if it really happened.  

Fables are meant to provide a moral lesson at the end whereas legends are meant to provide human values or qualities.  

An example of fable is “The Tortoise and the Hare” by Aesop. The main characters are the tortoise and the hare and a moral message is provided at the end.

An example of a legend is Robin Hood. Even though Robin Hood might have existed, the stories about him might not be all real.
