Throughout The Inferno, the first section in Dante 's three part epic poem The Divine Comedy, there are many examples of symbolism. This is seen in a variety of things. From the use of the three animals that Dante meets to the relationship between Dante and Virgil. However, the most prominent use of symbolism in this epic poem is Dante 's use of the journey through hell as a symbol of every man and woman 's own personal darkness. This is the darkness where they begin to sin. Only, in hell, their…

The Greek gods were very important in Ancient Greece. I chose to write about who I think are the three most important gods Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades, their wives Hera and Persephone (sans Poseidon’s wife), and Mount Olympus, their meeting place.

He controls the weather and can order arounds any god or mortal but cannot control the Fates (the three goddesses of destiny,…

Disney’s Hercules is a cute representation of the Greek Hero Heracles however it is not an accurate representation of the myth. Although there are many references to other myths that are correct the plot Disney creates of Hercules is not right. To start off, Disney has the initial scene of Hercules as a baby very wrong. According to the movie, Hera is Hercules’ mother. To be accurate with the myth, I would change Hercules’ family because he is actually the son of the princess Alcmene and…

I have chosen to write about Zeus and Hades, the Greek Gods. Zeus is the god of the sky and Hades is the god of the underworld. The reason I chose this topic is because I have always had an interest in Greek gods ever since I picked up a video game and played with the different Greek god characters. While doing that I discovered each God and what they represent. I feel that this topic is very important to Western Civilization because the Greeks worshipped these gods as their religion. Zeus, the…
