Rikki-Tikki-Tavi By: Quintavious adams Just before Nagaina reaches the house to kill Teddy, Rikki-tikki shows her the last egg. “Look at your eggs,” said Rikki-tikki, “in the melon bed near the wall. Go and look, Nagaina!” Nagaina turned around and saw Rikki-tikki with the last egg. “Ah-h! Give it to me”, she yelled. Nagaina quickly jerked around to face him and stroke his tail for a near miss. Rikki-tikki jumps and land and they have a battle in the middle of the garden. Everyone in the…

Triton was offered a gift of a lifted clod from earth; he allowed them to pass the seas. But then later, cut the victims throat and casted it to…

During the presentation on Titans vs. Olympians, one of the major ideas stated was that Medea and Jason symbolize the Titans and the Olympians, respectively. The Titans and Olympians both influence the beliefs and actions of Medea and Jason, and this is clearly shown by the playwright. As the presentation went on, I realized how big of an impact the Gods actually have on the characters. Medea’s unforgivable actions of killing her children were due to the fact that her grandfather is Helios, a…

I examined the eponymous character’s monologue from Euripides’s dramatic play “Medea”, first performed in Athens in the fourth century B.C. This work serves to lay out the reasons for a woman in Ancient Greek society to resent her role in it. In discussing marriage, it speaks of the “excess of wealth” or dowry needed to be provided by a woman’s family in order for her to marry, the social cost of not marrying, and the husband’s control over his wife’s body. It then discusses a woman’s need to…

When concerning Medea, with Jason as the tragic hero, reader’s come to the conclusion that Jason is the cause of this cause and effect situation of death that durates the story. In Euripides’ Medea readers sympathize with Medea and her mental deterioration initiated and accelerated by Jason’s greed, acts of misogyny, and dehumanization towards Medea which, in turn, spreads tragedy and brings suffering to the community. One can either find Medea or Jason to be the tragic hero of this tale.…

motherhood. Jason has an inability to comprehend the actions that he does will affect those around him. Medea’s passion for vengeance on those that have mistreated her is a greater driving force then those that she loves deeply. Creon by letting others manipulate him to doing what is better for others can lead to just as tragic outcomes. It is often in when one is selfish and is only looking to better themselves that will lead to horrific outcomes however by not choosing what is…

defined by Meriam Dictionary is a strong feeling of anger that is difficult to control. It is also defined as a sudden expression of violent anger. Medea is a tragic drama in which the protagonist, Medea, experiences much rage towards her husband Jason. The anger inside of her causes her to kill many people including Glauce, Creon, and her two sons. The Iliad is an epic poem in which the protagonist, Achilles, along with the antagonist, Hector, and Agamemnon experience much rage towards each…

Medea. Medea’s love for her husband, Jason, is so much, and so is the pain when Jason betrayed her…

What is the truth behind Jason? On the exterior, I see a very heroic and brave young boy who embarks on a long journey to capture the Golden Fleece and save his mother’s life. He is the perfect representation of a protagonist: young, handsome, strong, and fighting for and against something or someone greater than himself. Therefore, it would be preposterous for me to think he is not the man he appears to be. Or would it? I see Jason for who he really is, a scared, young boy acting foolishly on…

loves her two sons, doesn’t accept any other option besides killing them. The murder, or sacrifice in Medea’s eyes, was all in favor of Medea achieving the revenge on Jason she so desperately seeks. Well aware that the sacrifice will not bring Jason and Medea back together, the idea of the grief and sadness it will bring upon Jason is enough for Medea to be convinced. Medea, who loves her sons, will feel the same grief and sadness, but her extremist ways towards achieving her desires supersede…
