How Nurturing Shapes The Hero

gender. Our gender shapes who we are expected to be and shapes an image in our parents head of who they want us to be. Gender plays a key role throughout our life, it is defined as “the psychological, social and cultural aspects of masculinity and femininity” (butler-sweet,c,2017). Masculinity and femininity have been standardized into their own stereotypes. For example, masculine is known as aggression, competitive, brave, etc. While feminine is known as sensitive, weak, nurturing, etc. Because of

expected to act in society. In “She Has No Idea. The Effect She Can Have”, Jessica Miller compares masculine and feminine gender roles in both modern society and Panem, and how these characteristics can shape great heros, warriors, and caretakers. Based on modern society's ideas of femininity and masculinity, we can see how characters in The Hunger Games ignore these social roles and benefit from taking on characteristics of the opposite gender. Katniss, for example is not described as a typical

personal point of view that comes from the self, is what shapes the reality that one interacts with. So it is the self, and one’s relationship with the self that truly determines and ones’ actions and view of the world. Don Quixote is an excellent example of how one’s perspective and self-awareness are important. In this story a man sets out on his own adventure to right the wrongs of the world. However, in spite of noble intentions, this “hero” ends up causing much more harm then needed because he

bidirectional, since they both shape one another. In Theory of Knowledge (ToK), knowledge is classified into two groupings: personal and shared. Personal knowledge can be referred to as individual experiences albeit shared knowledge is highly structured, relying on the systemic knowledge of several individuals. As a real life example, I will be discussing the interpretation of art as well as the Jung archetypes and collective subconscious. From these examples, we can question how personal knowledge does

As humans, we all have the tendency to shape and mold ourselves so that we posses the qualities that will make us likeable. This likability is something that is more needed than it is wanted, a cover to help aid the facade that we have all adapted, a facade that hides the dark carnal urges that many of us posses deep within ourselves. It is an ingrained habit for us to hide them away, and instead be kind-hearted individuals with the purest intentions. When we encounter someone with the kinds of qualities

men and women, one can argue that these two women, by inhabiting very different gender roles, were more influential in developing the character of the hero. Penelope uses love as a more conventional way to be the hero that he became. Then we have the Athena the goddess who used unconventional and effective methods to help Odysseus become the hero that he became. Greek male writers like Homer believed that men were superior to women in every aspect. They subscribed to a tradition that enshrines the

ABSTRACT Change is best carried through by the many, not by just the hero-leader. Ten challenges to the initiation and sustaining of change are elaborated, illustrated by a rich range of case studies and supported by a practical checklist. We all know that change and innovation are of the essence for organisations today and in future. The bad news, according to Peter Senge, is that most change initiatives fail. The good news is that Senge and his co-authors think they know why and what to do about

Jacob Whitmer Professor Lopez English 1B 20 November 2017 Buffy the Feminist Queen Heros do not have to come in the form of having special abilities, it is the fact that you use those abilities to create good in society is what makes someone a hero. The hit television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, written and produced by Joss Whedon created Buffy Summers to be a butt kicking, teenage girl that balances fighting evil forces and being a regular teen. Whedon compares the evil forces to feminists

into one word: influence. It is undeniable that in modern society, sports play a pivotal role in influencing the cultivation of the individual’s human nature and mind. More than often so, the individual mind is indirectly affected by the sports’ “hero-like” character that is projected by the glorified images in the game setting. Drenched in sweat, harsh lighting casted upon the athlete---creating distinguished shadows---it alludes its audience of the grit required to endure the obstacles that all
