The story of…

The stories of Genesis and Popol Vuh attempt to explain the creation of Earth and mankind. Although these stories have many similarities, they do differ in many ways because of the different religions they come from. Right from the beginning there are obvious similarities between the two.

The presence of old men in literature are often portrayed as wise, god-like, or as a magician who is very wise. However, the man that Chaucer writes about…

Eve as equals. In Genesis, Eve was cursed with female inferiority as a result of the fall. “Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you” (Genesis 3:16); This was Eve’s punishment. However, in Paradise Lost, Milton clearly depicts Eve as the inferior creature prior to the fall. As written in the Bible “the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man 's ribs and closed up the place with flesh” (Genesis 2:21). Milton…
