Batman as Cultural Artifact The artistic representation of the Batman myth is an important cultural artifact of our time because it represents modern society's thirst for heroic ideals in popular entertainment. Since his creation, readers and viewers have admired Batman's unique ability to battle villainy, transcend the law and administer justice.

This paper will analyze why Batman is an important cultural artifact of our day, how he came into being, what he means for society, and how he will be treated in the future.

An epic is a long narrative poem that tells the exploits of an epic hero. Epics are comprised of an epic hero and an epic battle between good and evil. The earliest known epic today is The Epic of Gilgamesh. This tale is about Gilgamesh’s search for eternal life.

Batman and the Joker: vigilante justice The Dark Knight is one of the most realistic superhero movie ever made. The main theme of the movie is good versus evil. This theme is highlighted through the acts of Batman and the Joker.

Many people believe that the act of courage lies within each individual, and these acts of courage can be brought out by three possible cause. First, provocation. Often times this is seen in movies where the villain kidnaps and threatens to kill the hero’s family. More often than not, the hero finds it within himself to put aside his fears and overcome near impossible odds to save the day. In Batman begins, Batman found the courage to fight criminals after his parents were killed. The second cause is a purpose. In 2001, the Twin Towers fell to terrorist attacks. Military enlistments reached all-time highs as many men and women joined the armed forces. For many of these people, the prospect of serving their country, and gaining revenge for their

In a very highly tense and stressful situation, people tend to go as far as they can to avoid the situation at all costs.

Kasie Olds Analysis Paper #1 January 25, 2013 Introduction to Research Writing Batman: Year One is about Bruce Wayne’s beginning as becoming Batman. In the beginning of the comic book, Bruce has always known violence all of his life since he was a child. In the very beginning of the comic book, he witnessed a brutal cold violent act, his parents’ death that happened in front of his very eyes (21). That is one of the biggest contributing factors of who he is today as Bruce Wayne/Batman. As stated on pages 18 and 19, we see the first myth of “Crime Does Not Pay” (Carlson, Myths of Violence Discussion). The actions that are played into these pages are part of an injustice that is played upon Gotham City by the

Is Batman a Vigilante or a Hero? In the world of superheroes, there are many that believe they are heroes, while in actuality, they are merely vigilantes. This is most prominently seen in Batman. Batman presents himself as a hero, while he is only an over imaginative vigilante. He is more a vigilante than a hero because he has the ability to stop crime but doesn’t, he only does things for his own benefit, and he helps the law but isn’t part of it. These are only a few ways Batman is a vigilante, instead of a hero. These are mainly based upon the idea of him trying to hard to right his own past.

On March 2nd 2017, I watched the videos Batman Pt. 1 and Batman Pt. 2 hosted by Alix Spiegel and Lulu Miller which was posted January 22nd 2015 on NPR. These videos are about rats and how people think being smart plays a huge role on rats personalities. The question asked throughout the video is “Do you think the thoughts in your head could influence how that rat moves through space?” Another topic mentioned in the video is people who can see are not sure of how we convey our expectations. Could our expectations help a blind person see? Most believe no way but in these videos it persuades and explains how blind people use the signal detection theory to prove people wrong. Overall, throughout the video it persuades me that blind people can really see if those around them have high expectations for them also. I highly agree that blind people can see if others have high expectations for the blind along with

Batman v Superman was a very interesting movie to watch in my opinion not the best movie I’ve ever seen. The movie does teach a lesson that you can’t please everyone in the world. In the movie Superman tries so hard to live up to the “god’s son” idea but gets to wrapped up in it. The movie also teaches you that people are too quick to point fingers at the wrong people. Although the movie is very fictional and not one scene in it can actually happen in real life the movie does teach many
