After reading the myth of Pandora's box, we can discuss the characters and their traits and actions in the following manner:

  1. Zeus is similar to humans in the sense that he is resentful. We expect gods to be above such petty feelings and be forgiving, but that is not the case. When Zeus tells Hephaestus to create Pandora, his purpose is to torment the humankind.
  2. Pandora's defining trait is curiosity, which is why she ends up opening the box. If she had not been curious, the whole plot would not have developed. Pandora must open the box to unleash evils upon the earth.
  3. The fact that Hope is the last thing that comes out of the box shows that, no matter how bad things can get, people will always have hope to hold on to.

<h3>Who is Pandora?</h3>

Pandora is a character belonging to Greek mythology. She would be the one responsible for the evils that ravage our world. According to the story, those evils were stored in a box, which was opened by Pandora.

Even though the purpose of the story is to blame Pandora, a woman, for the problems of the world, it is important to keep in mind that she was set up for failure.

Pandora was created to be curious and then given a box which she was told not to open. Had the gods truly intended for the box to remain closed, they would not have trusted it to a curious person.

Supporting Detail- Bob Ewell is left handed.
satela [25.4K]
God I read this so long ago but assuming Bob is the guy accused of beating the white guy's wife, I think the book lets the reader know that he's left handed through Atticus's demonstration when Atticus threw something at Ewell and he caught it with his left hand. Atticus then asks why he didn't catch it with his right and then Ewell says he hurt it when he was younger.
