Federal Mistreating Of Nymphs Analysis

Decent Essays
I am Shagun Gupta from the Federal Mistreating of Nymphs. “Some people create their own storms, then get upset when it rains.” Using this quote it seems like I am going against Echo but I am trying to help her. It seems like that this whole problem is all Echo’s fault that she helped the God of the Sky but it was Zeus who had asked her to help him run away from his wife. Echo deserves a lesser punishment because Zeus had asked Echo for help and Hera was being a jealous goddess when Hera took away Echo’s beautiful voice. Echo deserves a lesser punishment because Zeus had asked her for help. We have multiple pieces of evidence to prove this claim. The biggest piece of evidence I have is that Zeus often visits the nymphs and he was quite attracted to them. When I heard of what had happened, I noticed that Zeus repeats his actions over and over again. It clearly states that Zeus will never learn his lesson. This particular reason shows that no matter what happens Zeus will keep repeating these mistakes and he will keep asking other nymphs for help. Will the Queen of the Gods keep punishing all of the nymphs until no nymph can ever speak again? We all at the Federal Mistreating of Nymphs know that Hera will surely …show more content…
I know for a fact that the Goddess who is claimed to be a jealous and vengeful never meant to take away Echos beautiful voice, Hera was just trying to run after Zeus and Echo interfered in your way. Out of all the mountain nymphs, Echo had the sweetest voice so of course Zeus couldn’t resist and needed to ask for help from Echo. Now we are aware that Echo could have said no and carried on but everyone obeyed Zeus and she needed to help him otherwise Zeus would have given a worse punishment than this. If you think about what Echo did, you will understand that Echo was just helping Zeus in which case it is all Zeus’s

    In the years from 1787 through 1788 a number of papers began to appear that radically changed American government. Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay wrote eighty-five different letters to newspapers that helped ratify the Constitution and create a system of checks and balances for the government that the United States should still follow today. The Framers constructed the Federalist Papers to avoid many of the problems that the American government is facing today such as the Supreme Court infringing the boundaries of the judicial branch by creating their own laws. This violation of the delegation of powers can be seen in the upcoming case that will soon be decided on April 28th, 2015. The goal of this trial is to force every…

Both of the women Helen’s presence references had their lives destroyed by sexism. Zeus was entranced by Semele’s beauty and decided it was alright to take advantage of her without consent.

    Furthermore, a key factor for inspiration is the ability to relate to the personages you are trying to inspire. However, the gods are only able to relate through deception. Instead of humbling themselves and forming a connection with mortals, they change their appearance to a family member or companion in order to become more relatable. During the onslaught of Patroclus, Hector debates with himself on whether or not to retreat in order to save the lives of his men. As he was contemplating, Apollo appears in the form of Hector’s uncle, Asius, and convinces him to fight Patroclus (436).…

    Human agency is demonstrated in Homer’s The Odyssey and Virgil’s The Aeneid through the story arcs of the characters of Odysseus and Aeneas. In the Odyssey, although Odysseus’ fate seems to be predetermined by the gods, it is actually influenced entirely by Odysseus’s own choices. In the Aeneid, however, Aeneas does not possess the same free will as Odysseus; his destiny is determined by the will of Zeus. Homer establishes the independence of the choices of mortals over the preordinations of the gods, while Virgil emphasizes the control the gods exercise over the fates of mortals.…

    This quote shows that, as Theseus conquered the battle against the Amazons, he also conquered their queen. With his power over Hippolyta, another aspect of the play is that Hippolyta was very quiet throughout this scene. Regardless of her sitting next to Theseus as a queen, she had no say in Theseus’s decision making about their own marriage, or even Hermia’s. This signifies how Hippolyta is more subordinate to Theseus. Her silence in Act 1 Scene 1 demonstrates how, because a king is expected to have more authority during this era, Hippolyta has little influence.…

    Athena’s’ actions that she takes against the Trojans perhaps play the biggest role in their defeat. Many times throughout the Iliad the Trojans call out for help from Zeus only for their prayers to fall on deaf ears because of his wife’s hatred of them. Perhaps Hector would have avoided death by the hand of Achilles if Athena had not disguised herself as his ally. Without Hector fighting on the side of the Trojans they had no chance against the forces of Agamemnon and his great army. Athena’s betrayal against Hector eventually leads to the destruction of…
