Ancient Egypt was an empire that began in approximately 3100BCE, and ended in 30BCE.

The novel In the Time of the Butterflies, by Julia Alvarez and the play Antigone by Sophocles, both include similar characters, situations, and actions that react to the idea of a dangerous growing authority. The characters Dede from the Time of the Butterflies and Ismene from Antigone both strive to stay out of trouble with the government; however Dede’s approach is more effective as she becomes an oracle character by the end of the novel, for she lives to tell the story of the Mirabal sisters. Dede uses her relationship with her sisters and her own family to survive through the dangerous reign of Trujillo. When facing a regime such as Trujillo's regime, the survivors who live to tell their story, like Dede, are crucial to understanding and analyzing important historical moments. These survivors live through real tragedies, so they are primary resources with personal opinions and experiences.

Some of the most famous Greek heroes, including Herakles, Perseus, and Theseus have all restored order in times of chaos. This reoccurring theme of chaos to calm is particularly evident in Homer’s Odyssey. The Odyssey retells a series of events where Odysseus encounters and overcomes chaos, before he finally returns home and restores order to Ithaka. By using the chaos created from the suitors, the monsters and the internal dilemma on whether he should continue his quest for nostos or to abandon it, Homer emphasizes the need for Odysseus to instill peace where there is chaos.

Savior of Thebes Imagine a world stricken with chaos and no law enforcement. Sophocles demonstrated in this Greek tragedy Antigone that disobeying the law can lead to various conflicts. For example Antigone violates the law and goes against King Creon’s decree; therefore she is faced with her death which later results in her fiancé Haemon and his mother Queen Eurydice taking their own lives. Creon is portrayed as a heartless individual due to his lack of sympathy towards his niece Antigone, but in reality he was a king demonstrating his ability to create a safe city for Thebes. Creon cannot show weakness to anyone, he needs to be taken serious to fulfill his new duty.

The themes that will be reviewed are how good triumphs over evil, non-conformity and the control that Mr. Karle possesses over Cheshunt. Good triumphing over evil was the dominant theme throughout this novel . As the evil “gathering” grows Nathanial and The Chain (Nathanial Delaney, Danny Odin, Nissa Jerome, Indian, Seth Paul and Lalli) must complete the healing, where they use their symbols to heal the earth. “Do you believe in good and evil, Mum?” I asked… “…I mean evil as a sort of force that you could fight.”

Mythologists are able to use Greek art to interpret the meaning behind lost plays. Art in The British Museum called “Pandora and the Gods, Pan and Satyrs” reveals what the plot of the lost Sophocles play, “Pandora, or The Hammerers”, may have been. Mythologists are able to identify characters in the artwork because of traits the characters possess. Because mythologists can identify characters in the artwork, they are further able to identify scenes in the artwork—in this case a scene from the myth of the creation of Pandora (British Museum).
