Myth and heros

I'm going to talk about the notion Myth and heros, first of all, I'm going to give my personal definition of Myth and heros. As for me a myth is a story that may or may not be true it's a traditional story like the Odyssey. It's a fabulous story wich may have a moral. A hero, to my minf is a person who is admired for his courage, bravert and so one.It can also be the main character in a book or a film, he can be a person with superpowers for instance spiderman. Otherwise it can be a modern-day hero, a person who has performed a heroic act like firemens.

Places and forms of power

Places and forms of power

I'm going to talk about the notion Places and forms of power, first of all, I'm going to give my personal definition of Places and forms of power. As for me "places" could be important building or institutions that represent a certain form of power, for example Buckingham Place, a symbol of the American presidensy. A place can also be a contry or a state, for instance the USA is a state which is powerful enough to influence events. Tourought the world. Moreover "Power" id the ability to control others, events or ressources; the ability to make things happen despite obstacles, resistence or opposition.This of course leads to conflicts between those who have power and those who don't .
To illustrate this notion, I would like to talk about a poster about Gun violence. Then i'm going to present a cartoon by Ohman and in the end I'll explain a text about the murder of o young boy.
