(ACT 5. SC 4. line 58-59)

"Throw physic to the dogs.

The Odyssey

I think the them of the stroy is to never over or under estimate the power of some one. i think in book 21 ponlope plan th string the bow. in this book they have to sting the bow and all the men try but none of them sucseed. but one odssyes dose it he sucseds. "just let him try the;he'll see the truth" (pg:429 line:181) he strung the bow and proved them all wrong. they dident think the old nasty bagger could do this. but the bager was actualy odsseys.

another example on the them is on all the pepole doubt him. Right before he shoots no one can belive him(at this point he is still a bagger) "you,you grubby swinerherd, are you crazy?" (pg:436 Line:405) all them men think he is crazy and dont think he can do it. and they just think it is the bagger and he wastent turnd back. so the under estimated the bagger and then found out it was odsseys. and thats why is think it drives back into the them.

the last qute is that discribs the them of never over or under estimate the power of some one by all the sutiter yelling at odsseys and at this point they dont know what they have coming to them. "your game is over-you,you've shot your last!" "you'never escape your own headlong death!" "You killed the best in ithaca-our fine prince!" vultures will eat your corpse!" (pg:440 Line:28-31) I think that the suteirs doing this agrvated him. it got him mad the peppole die bucese of his anger.

never over or under estimate the power of some one. i think that this is a good them bucuse it hapens in the book and ends up pepole die cuse of it. if this happend in real life and evary one was juged we would not know about any one. then is why i think its a good them

i think that odyssus show a hero trait. he may not be a hero by saving other pepole. but he saves him self when he saves himself. when he save himslef when he is foightinh thought the storm on the raft. he has to be a hero and save himslef.

also i think that odyssus show a hero trait by. talking to the gods. he has to talk tp the gods to save other pepole. he must do this and he gets lots of credit for it also.

First Blog Assignment: Guys in Lit/Cheng

I think that Victor’s journey is similar to Luke’s because of the challenges they have. Luke and Victor both represent hero figures in that they both encounter a person who will protect them, and they both meet a “goddess.” However they are different in the way they save a significant character.

In Star Wars Luke’s protector is a supernatural assistant named Ben, aka Obi Won K. Luke hears Ben telling him “let the force be with you” when he is in trouble. Victor’s protector is Thomas Builds a Fire. He tells many stories and also lends him some money.


Another thing that they have in common is meeting the goddess. Luke meets Princess Lea, and Victor meets Cathy. Luke sees Princess Lea in R2D2 projector and really wants to meet her. Victor meets Cathy on the airplane down to Arizona. They talked most of the flight.

The two things that are different between the two heroes were that they had to save different people in different ways. In Luke’s journey he had to save Princess Lea from the death-star. He had to save her in a more of a physical the victor saved Thomas in a mental way. Victor has to save Thomas because Thomas has to tell is stories to some one. So they both saved people but in A different way.

So in Star Wars and Arizona both the heroes have similar goals and action that they have to do to help and save people, and in saving people that’s what makes them heroes. They all so hade different heroic actions
