Answer and Explanation:

Prometheus was a titan who saw in human beings a lot of potential and wanted to help them, since human beings were his creation and he was very proud of what he had created. He wanted humans to dominate the land and other animals and so he gave them the ability to think and reason. When Zeus saw this, he was angry, because with reasoning, human beings would be unbeatable and dominate Zeus' creations. For this reason, to limit the autonomy of human beings, Zeus took away from them the possibility of producing fire on the earth.

Prometheus then resolved to steal fire from Olympus and give it to humans, allowing them to remain the true dominators of the land.

This story has a strong cultural significance, as the Greeks were very connected to knowledge, study and reasoning and used this story to explain the importance of thought, which made Zeus himself worried.

What were some of the jobs that Wilson Rawls held besides writing?
olga55 [171]
The jobs that Wilson Rawls did beside being a writer were as a carpenter and also in a construction company. Wilson Rawl traveled to South America, Canada and Alaska as a carpenter. This did not hinder his love for writing. During this period he wrote "Where the Red Fern Grows" and four other manuscripts. he kept them hidden for a lonf time as the manuscripts did not have any punctuation and had spelling and grammatical mistakes. He also took up a job in a construction company later on for a construction company that worked on the guided missile range in South West.
