This week we continued our language and hero studies, which all culminated the end of the week with out essay and Beowulf quiz. My essay was the sixth prompt, which meant that I wrote my essay about the modern definition of a hero. I said that heroes are simply embodiments of their cultures values, and wrote about it.

  1. Whoa! My essay was the sixth prompt as well. How did you think you did? I thought that the prompt was definitely straightforward and easy to answer. I felt pretty good about my essay.

  2. Nice! I was thinking of that one, but ended up writing the third prompt. What cultural values did you focus on?

  3. Sweet that sounded like a really interesting topic. Except what would happen if most people thought of their society as sick or evil, would the hero be sick and corrupt or would he stand as someone that represented the opposite of his society.
