The Hunger Games, A book series by Suzanne Collins, differs in few ways from Veronica Roth’s Divergent. The Hunger Games lead role, Katniss Everdeen, lives in a world of few choices. The government controls the lives of everybody in the 12 districts. When Katniss’ little sister, Primrose, is chosen to fight in the annual Hunger Games, Katniss volunteers to take her place. She is forced to fight and forced to kill, all to survive. This competition results in the people fearing not only their government, but also their futures. Katniss becomes a symbol of rebellion against the

Katniss Everdeen shares in Thoreau’s beliefs and has a strong hatred towards the government in which she lives under. The government she lives under, led by the Capitol, is a totalitarian government. They are very cruel and they attempt to control every aspect of the people’s lives. Katniss says, “Taking the kids from our districts, forcing them to kill one another while we watch--this is the Capitol’s way of reminding us how totally we are at their mercy” (Collins 17). This shows just how controlling and intimidating the government of her society is. Katniss expresses her hate for the Capitol when she says, “It’s the Capitol I hate, for doing this to all of us” (Collins 166). Katniss hates the government and how they operate, just as Thoreau and other transcendentalists do.

In the novel “The Hunger Games” Suzanne Collins conveys the qualities of a hero through the main character Katniss Everdeen. The novel is based around a dystopian nation, in which is placed in Panem. Through which a boy and a girl from each district must take part in ‘The Hunger Games’ where they have to fight to the death, until there is one survivor. Katniss subsequently evolves as a significant hero portraying the heroic qualities such as selflessness, identity change and intelligence. Selflessness is shown as she puts others before herself, her identity changes as she has to put up a brave face, and intelligence is displayed as her strategies progress in the games.

“We had to save you because you're the Mockingjay, Katniss, says Plutarch. While you live, the revolution lives” (Collins). Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games is a complex character who epitomizes the archetype of a hero, however, she also shatters the mold by rebelling against the capital and endangering her whole family. She starts out as a hero to her family, especially her sister, and then becomes the symbol of strength to everyone. Katniss sacrifices herself by volunteering to join the Hunger Games in place of her sister, it is a game of survival where a boy and a girl from each district are forced to fight the other members of other districts to the death. By going out of her ordinary world and preparing to join a game where her life could be taken, she fits right into the archetype of a hero. Her bow and arrow, the weapon that only she can wield, will be the only things to help her survive. Despite these heroic qualities, Katniss makes an erroneous decision and blunder mistakes that shows the reader the flip side of Katniss.

Sometimes when people encounter difficult challenges they rise up to the occasion and change for the better. The main character in Collins' book, Katniss Everdeen, is a demonstration of this type of response. When her little sister Prim was called to fight for her life, Katniss instinctively took her place; which creates irony, because nobody was expecting Katniss to volunteer for her. When hard times hit Katniss' family, her mom fell into deep depression and didn't provide for her family anymore, so in a way, Katniss became head of the household (with the support of many people); this sets the sad but intense mood for the book. She is characterized by her honest, hard working personality that is shown through her actions. Like

Katniss Everdeen, the main character is seen in an incessant state of anguish, worrying about her beloved younger sister Prim, without the slightest concern for her own welfare, an idiosyncrasy that robustly contradicts with the typical perfect and flawless main character portrayed in almost all action/adventure films. The controversial scene then ends with the fearless Katniss Everdeen taking her sister’s place and volunteering for her in the Hunger Games after she had been conscripted. There are even ceaseless ties made between District 12 and World War II concentration camps ranging from the rag like clothing to the groups of hopeless children with guns aimed at their face, further deliberating Katniss’s initial mother like and selfish instincts when preferring to worry about her sister in an environment that can be related to a significant historical atrocity. As a set-up for the rest of the film, this sequence plays an important role in constructing the underlying theme of the film as a whole. The fact that Katniss finds her own empathy, sense of caring and compassion and her journey of going from a un-trusting and instinctive girl to a strong moraled, selfless woman that would rather die than take an innocent human life. An

The games were biased as they were set to entertain a few individuals in authority while everyone else suffered the death consequences or the loss of a loved one. It also shows how Katniss a lady from a humble background defies the norms and laws of the capitol, specifically the President as she decides not to kill Peeta and become the last survivor. Most people in different Districts did not approve of the The Hunger Games as they were unfair but lacked the courage to voice out their concerns in fear of the consequences (). Katniss displays positive attributes; sacrifice by taking the place of her younger sister in the games and bravery and defiance of the norms by saving Peeta. The theme of inequality in the movie addresses the social classes that define modern society. The dictators enrich themselves and continue growing richer while the poor suffer and continue to drown in

Katniss was the kind of person that put the greater good in first place. She knew what was right and wrong. She never went with the status quo. Her dad was killed in a mine explosion and her mom was a little crazy. This forced Katniss to become an adult at an early age. She learned the meaning of family and did not take that lightly. Katniss learned to hunt and catch food, so that her family could survive.

At the beginning Katniss didn't like the Government because she thought that they were unfair and thought they were hiding and keeping secrets from the tributes. During the games the game makers tried to kill Katniss while she was sleeping and Then at the end she was still skeptical of the government and game makers and she didn't like them because she still thought they were cruel to their

“As soon as a religion comes to dominate it has as its opponents all those who would have been its first disciples.” Nietzsche was one of the first modern philosophers to rebel against rationalism and when World War I came about, the revolution against religion truly became a legitimate statement. Friedrich Nietzsche strongly believed that many of those that practiced religion were led to the acceptance of slave morality. Religion had always played a fundamental role in society as it sets strict boundaries and standards of what is morally correct and incorrect. However, Nietzsche claims that, “Human nature is always driven by “ ‘the will to power’ ”, but religion will tell one otherwise, saying that one should forbid their bad desires. In Nietzsche’s
