The tornadoes destroyed all the towns buildings, crops and animals. The only things that were not destroyed were Tornandoes’s house,

    Powerful and harsh are the gods of ancient Greece. They are to be respected, worshipped and feared in order to live a peaceful and long life. Hesiod represents these gods in similar but contrasting ways through the tale of Prometheus and Pandora in his poems, Works and Days and The Theogony. Though both poems are different and take on a different form they are both considered wisdom literature because we learn a lesson of right and wrong from the tales being told. In these poems we examine the gods through the eyes of the man working for a living and through the eyes of the gods fighting for their place among themselves in Olympus.…

    Since she took her personal matters into her own hands, she decided to punish the product of the infidelity by having Lyssa inflict insanity on the man. After the Gods watched Heracles kill his own family, only when he is about to kill the man who raised him does Zeus, Hercales’s real father, step in to calm down his son. The Gods used their own personal lives and problems motivate their actions against the innocent, disobeying the virtue that they were given. They used malevolent power for their own goods This idea can be related to politicians who often use their power for selfish reasons instead of helping those in need. It seems as if the Gods were amused by punishing others, finding entertainment out of others’ suffering.…

    In Athens, the old-fashioned and traditional way of life is what one would consider the proper and just speech. Contrary, unjust speech is not accepted in the court of law because it does not appeal to the gods. Unjust speech is seen as boosting self-indulgence and is seen as a threat to the city (Clouds, pg.151). Throughout Aristophanes’ Clouds there is a battle between what is new and old, just and unjust. This is clear in Clouds, considering that Pheidippides would be considered “New”, overturns the old, which would be considered “Strepsiades”.…
