Recommended: Role models for young people

The hero I picked was Wonder Woman. Wonder Woman is considered a hero because she is considered the first woman to become a hero, also in the movies she plays in she saves people's lives, and tries to put the bad people away in jail. As kids grow up watching cartoons they look up to the person who is the good person in the movie. She always has a positive attitude about life, always doing something good to help herself or the community. When little kids are growing up you want them to see what the good people are doing, not the bad people. Nobody looks up the bad people so parents loving watching their kids see something good going on TV. The values that she represents are protecting herself, protecting other, and she's one of the strongest

  • A Hero in the Epic of Gilgamesh and The Novel Monkey

    1842 Words  | 4 Pages

    When asking people about what characteristics they think of when they think of a hero the most common answers would be doing good deeds and not allowing evil to flourish. This is what we have been made to believe. One of the first images that come to mind when the word hero is mentioned is a superhero. An image of Batman or Superman is likely, one who is good natured and conquers evil as it appears. Just doing good deeds or not committing evil sins is not enough. First you would have to distinguish the difference between an evil and a good action. The line between good and evil is so thin that specific attributes and certain actions are constantly being exchanged back and forth. We cannot decide as a society what is good and what is evil. A modern day example would be when the United States made the decision to bomb Japan during World War II. For Americans celebration ensued as it was thought to be a decisive moment of victory. Those who were involved in t...

  • Defining a Hero

    2189 Words  | 5 Pages

    To the world today, a hero is someone distinguished by exceptional courage, nobility, or strength; but really, anyone can be a hero. A hero can vary from someone as well-known as George Washington to someone as unheard of as anyone’s very own mother. Someone who has done a good deed for someone else is hero. The biggest heroes are the ones in well-known books and plays, such as Odysseus from The Odyssey, or have made a huge difference in the history of this world, like Mahatma Gandhi. Siddhartha Gautama is a hero, but not in the same way Odysseus or Gandhi are. Although these three influential people went through different journeys in order to accomplish different things, they are all heroes in their own way and have been through the same cycle of the road of trials and crisis/salvation.

  • Who Is The Hero

    1109 Words  | 3 Pages

    Movies have evolved a great deal since the days when a couple fighting scenes and a small love story satisfied audiences. Today movie plots are much more complicated and have much more action, thanks to modern day technologies. Although these new technologies seem to make movies increasingly complicated, some crucial roles in movies will never change. One thing that has remained constant in the film industry is the role of the hero. No matter what the genera of the film and or when the film was made the hero’s always share similar characteristics and are put through similar series of tests to prove their heroism. When these tests are completed it seems to pull everything together in their films. Although the hero Shane in the movie Shane and the hero Ripley in the movie Aliens are from two separate generas and are also from separate time periods, the hero’s in each movie share characteristics and are put through similar tests that make them, in theory, one in the same. Heroic characteristics start to become evident right from the start of each of the movies.

  • The Importance Of Heroism In The Film Wonder Woman

    1594 Words  | 4 Pages

    The hero theory conveys the message that upon understanding heroic ideals present in the texts of one culture, inferences can be made of the significant values of that society. One specific group whose literature conveyed important messages about heroic ideals were the Anglo-Saxons. They built their foundation of heroic ideals on physical strength, loyalty, revenge, bravery, and fame. Although their existence was over 1,000 years ago, the heroic ideals featured in many of their texts are still significant in modern culture. A more recent text, however, that depicts modern heroic traits, is the movie Wonder Woman, directed by Patty Jenkins. In this film, Diana, the main character leaves her home; an isolated community, to end World War One in

    When we were kids, we all had that one person we looked up to. Whether it was a princess, a celebrity, a fictional superhero, or a family member, we gave this person the title “hero.” We selected these people to be our heroes because they had specific qualities like bravery, strength, and intelligence, but not all heroes are required to have these qualities. A hero is someone who, based on perspective, can be found almost anywhere because they make sacrifices and do actions for the better of others.
