Dionysus 'Percy Jackson': A Narrative Fiction

"Relax, Children. You'll just be attending a boarding school to keep a mortal safe." He starts, not really blaming Percy and Annabeth for their reaction, after all they have been to Tartarus and back. As Chiron explains the situation, Percy and Annabeth relax, but Nico becomes tense.

Polyphemus is startled to see Odysseus and his men. Polyphemus snatches two men and makes his meal. Odysseus wants to take his sword to Polyphemus but knows if he kills him now he won’t be able to escape because of the giant boulder. The next day while Polyphemus is pasturing his sheep, Odysseus finds and hardens a wooden staff. When Polyphemus returns, Odysseus offered Polyphemus some wine. “‘Here, Cyclops, drink some wine after of human flesh, and see what sort of liquor our ship held. I brought it as an offering thinking that you might pity me and send me home. But you are mad past bearing. Reckless! How should a stranger come to you again from any people, when you have done this wicked deed?’ So I spoke; he took the cup and drank it off, and mighty pleased he was with the taste of the sweet liquor, and thus he asked me for it yet again:

The book Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters is story about Greek Gods and Demi Gods. Percy Jackson is the main character and also a Demi God. Annabeth is Percy’s friend and also a Demi God. Tyson is a big strong Cyclops and also Percy’s friend. The story takes you through their adventure of finding the Golden fleece to save to save camp Half-blood from being exposed to the mortal world.

Rick Riordan’s ‘Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief’ focuses on Greek mythology and interprets this into a children’s story. Throughout the story, there are many references and adaptations to mythological tales, and each one is portrayed in a different way. Riordan writes this story as though Hercules, Zeus and Poseidon were still around today, and this would be the effect they would have on people in this day and age.

Percy Jackson and the Story of Perseus in Greek Mythology are both very well known. But taking a closer look they are more than a movie and a greek legend. They are stories that draw off each other and change the story to fit the time. For Percy it’s Modernized, but for Perseus it was in the Greek era. In this essay you will learn that Percy Jackson draws on the original legend of Perseus by generally keeping the plot the same and the characters. Although, the characters are a bit more modernized to be easier to connect to. It changes the legend in adding on a couple of other greek legends to add depth. This is shown through the plot modernization that takes place in real places, the Characters that are modernized but are the same on the inside,

The novel is an extremely immersive experience owing to the protagonist - Percy Jackson - regularly breaking the fourth wall and speaking directly to the readers. It builds up suspense by foreshadowing the events to come, giving the readers a taste of the challenges awaiting Percy in the pages ahead. Percy is portrayed as the modern-day equivalent of classical heroes. Like the past heroes, Percy is treated differently by those around him, and has trouble fitting in with them. An absent father and a lack of knowledge of his own past help draw further parallels with the classical 'hero' figure. The significant people in Percy's life appear to know something about Percy that he doesn’t know and seek to protect him. Percy, however, is a stubborn

Throughout the Odyssey, Odysseus experiences many ups and downs throughout his journey home. He is throw into peril and there often seems to be no hope for his return home. While he remains victorious in the end, returning to his wife, son, and father, the poem itself is filled with many darker moments filled with doubt and sadness. Odysseus is the hero of the Odyssey, and in order to exist as a hero he must be relatable. His story cannot be one entirely of triumph, it must include a more human perspective. Triumph cannot come without strife, and heroism cannot come without tribulation. Athena and Odysseus’ experiences as divine and human, respectively, and define whether or not they are heroes. By comparing Odysseus to Athena, it is apparent that what makes Odysseus a hero before anything else is his humanity.

Over and over again, night after night, day after day, the same thing. Yes, it was just like before, but this time I wasn't alone. That company is all I had ever wanted. Odysseus ended up barely caring that he had been gone from his family for so long. I treated him so well. I'm pretty sure I made him happy, and I finally had the company I always wanted. I was happy too. I needed him here, on my island, way more than he knew. To my surprise, he never even mentioned leaving, or Ithaca, or his family. I thought that he really was going to stay here forever, and all I had to do was give him everything, that was easy and I was okay with it. After a while, though, that changed. He started to not want to be with me, he would get up before me, sat by himself on the rock, wouldn’t even wait for me to come outside too, and sometimes even went to bed before me. It was like he was avoiding me. I couldn't figure out why, what I had done. I gave him everything. Then one day, I walked out to the rock, where he sat and I heard him crying. "What's wrong, Odysseus?" I asked, sincerely, I really didn’t want him to be upset and to make him want to leave

“They let me out after I proved I was good. I had to kill everyone that was necessary in order to be with your dad because I loved him first. I knew him first too. And now it’s your turn.”

He nods, turning his head to the door." And don´t try to poison the tea, Miss Abigail, I´ll let your son drinking it first," he shouts. With a smile he turns his head back. "It was obvious that you have your quarrels with your husband as you stayed for two days at our current home three weeks ago and cried your eyes out and her shoulder. But that they run so deep that you would plot to murder him... tsk, tsk, tsk..."

A book is something that opens the door to our inner minds and shatters the boundary between our imagination and reality. The book that I read is called The Sea of Monsters has been a trail of adventures and laughs as the characters soar through obstacles and triumphs. Percy Jackson, might seem like an ordinary kid that goes to an ordinary school along with his ordinary classmates. But, Percy is a little special himself. His very father is the god of the sea. This book told a tale of Percy and his companions, rescuing their beloved camp, and also Grover, an old friend. What I love about the book is that each of the characters have different and fascinating personalities that made them unique to each other. For instance, Percy and Tyson with their good hearts; Polyphemus and Luke with their obsessions with revenge; and the monsters who tried to annihilate the Camp Half Blood.

The Odyssey, written by Homer, tells the story of the hero Odysseus as he tries to make his way home from the battle at Troy. His journey is filled with hardships and opportunities to grow and change as a man and become a better person. Percy Jackson and The Olympians: Sea of Monsters, written by Rick Riordan, is about two 12/13-year-old friends, Percy and Annabeth, who are children of Poseidon and Athena respectively. They go on a quest to rescue their friends and the camp they attend, where children of the gods are protected. Percy and Annabeth also go through hardships which help them to grow and develop characteristics that are valued in society. Both Homer and Riordan reveal the personality traits of their characters, and the

My original thought when comparing Percy Jackson and the Olympians: the Lightning Thief the movie and Classical mythology was that there would be many more references to the myth of Perceus than any other myth throughout the movie in its entirety. That’s where I was wrong. After watching the movie again and researching the different hero myths my opinion has changed. My new thoughts are that the movie is not influenced by the myth of Perceus any more than other hero myths. The movie ties together many different heroes’ stories and mixes them together to make a wonderful story about a young boy. The movie was based on a book series written by Rick Riordan.

The guards’ ropes fell apart, their latches opened, and they realized that they could not imprison Dionysus and his followers. Dionysus was taken to Pentheus, and tried to explain his worship. Pentheus only listened to his own anger, and insulted Dionysus. “Dionysus gave up and left Pentheus to his doom. Pentheus pursued Dionysus followers up into the hills where they had gone after walking away from his prison. Many of the local women including Pentheus’ mother and sister had joined them there. Then Dionysus appeared to his followers in his most

The call to adventure of Percy could be when they had a field trip to the Metropolitan Museum of Art where his math teacher Mrs. Dodds was one of the three furies and after something happened to his classmate Nancy Bobofit (he did something with water that made her wet). Mr. Brunner, his Latin Teacher, showed up and threw a pen in him that became a sword (Riptide/Anaklusmos). He fought Mrs. Dodds and swung the
