Exposing the Human Condition in Antigone Heroism entails several things; a selfless act, courage, or the accomplishments of bold and daring expeditions. A hero can also mean courage in the face of death. Others may view this type of hero as stupid, or a martyr. Every hero has faults and these faults along with heroic deeds make the man or woman; a hero, heroine. "Antigone" would be considered a hero in the sense of being a martyr. Because of her love for her family Antigone wanted to give her brother a proper burial, and even though he did evil deeds, she respected him. She believed that all of the dead were in a state of equality. When faced with the decision to obey the King or obey her heart, she says on page 23, in lines 86-90: "I will bury him myself./If I die for doing that, good:/I will stay with him, brother;/and my crime will be devotion." This decision, to bury her brother, was very heroic in that even though she knew deat...
Johanna Merirand Reflective Statement How was your understanding of the cultural and contextual considerations of the work developed during your interactive oral? My comprehension of the traditions and culture of the ancient Greek was substantially enhanced through the discussion we had on the conflict between men and nature in Antigone by Sophocles. The two main characters in the play are Antigone and Creon, who both are motivated by their hubris and the need for glory. In the play, Antigone rebels against the rules set out by Creon, when she attempts to bury her brother even though it has been prohibited by the state. Antigone is sentenced with a death penalty, which is found unreasonable by many of the other members of the society. In the discussion we explored the nature of men and authority i...
Celtic Mythology Celtic mythology is the mythology of Celtic polytheism, apparently the religion of the Iron Age Celts. Like other Iron Age Europeans, the early Celts maintained a polytheistic mythology and religious structure. Among Celts in close contact with Ancient Rome, such as the Gauls and Celtiberians, their mythology did not survive the Roman empire, their subsequent conversion to Christianity, and the loss of their Celtic languages. It is mostly through contemporary Roman and Christian sources that their mythology has been preserved. The Celts peoples who maintained either their political or linguistic identities (such as the Gaels and Brythonic tribes of Great Britain and Ireland) left vestigial remnants of their forebears' mythologies, put into written form during the Middle Ages. Though the Celtic world at its apex covered much of western and central Europe, it was not pol...

Mesopotaamia usk ja jumalad II kursus 2013 ● Usk oli üldiselt pragmaatiline, templit peeti jumala maiseks kojaks (selles peitus ka nende suursugususe põhjus). ● Tähtsal kohal oli ennustamine, mis oli Mesopotaamias ka omamoodi teadusharuks. ● Surmajärgsus ei olnud suure tähelepanu all, ennekõike sooviti olla õnnelik maises elus. Surnute hinged arvati minevat Allilma, kus neid ootab rõõmutu oleskelu. Mesopotaamia surm ● Jumalad kuulusid panteoni (jumalkonda), olid antropomorfsed. ● Neid kujutati suure pere või suguvõsana, kes elasid kõrgest soost ülikute elu. Erinevalt Egiptusest olid Mesopotaamia jumalad lihtinimestele lähemal, neil oli inimlikke iseloomujooni (võitlesid, tundsid kadedust ja armastasid ning ms.). Mesopotaamias oli sadu erinevaid jumalaid, kes vastutasid kõikide maailma asjade eest- jõgedest, puudest kuni leivateo ja keraamikani välja... Järgnevalt Mesopot...

Where I'm From I'm not from a country of fortune and fame, I'm just from a group that thinks it's a game. I'm not from a place of emotional flow, But more from a place where nothing will show. I am from the seaside, I'm waiting for tide, The amount of their feelings that people will hide. I am from a country with a colorful past, "How long?" they said, "How long will it last?" Dark clouds sent by gods as they form in the sky, Like millions of people on the streets walking by. Now, imagine that people would become extinct, Their knowledge, their data all lost in a blink. But maybe our lives are not what they seem, Maybe, just maybe, it's all just a dream.
APHRODITE EHK VENUS Toomas Rüütel 10.B klass 2014 Kes Aphrodite on? Aphrodite oli üks 12-st Olümpose jumalast. Ta oli armastuse, viljakuse ja ilu jumalanna. Ta oli nii inimeste kui ka jumalate kaval võrgutaja. Aphrodite oli abielus sepp-jumala Hephaistosega. Tal oli ka peo Eros, teise nimega Amor. Teda kujutati peamiselt peegli, lillede ja oma poja Erosega.

Capital Punishment should (not) be abolished Capital punishment has been an ancient way of punishment, which is thought to have started with blood feud and human sacrifices to gods. There are different points of views supporting or held against this sort of punishment. First of all, it is inhumane, primitive and brutal way of revenge, which is contradiction to the basic values of Christian Europe. What is more, it stands in the way of society progressing morally. With this sort of punishment county sets itself at the same level as the criminal and this may increase aggressiveness and lover the value of human life. People who support capital punishment have as good arguments as those who are against it. Capital punishment helps to preserve people's belief in justice and the power of law. It also may help preventing wild justice. For this kind of punishment is the fact that public opinion has always supported it...

Antiikjumalad ja nende kujutamine kunstis Athena-Minerva Jumala lugu Athena (Minerva) oli neitsilik kreeka jumalanna, Zeusi tütar, sündis raseda Metise allaneelanud Zeusi peast: pärast seda, kui Hephaistos oli peavalu kannatava Zeusi kolju kirvega lõhestanud, astus Athena sealt välja täies relvastuses (kiiver, oda, kilp, aigis-rinnakilp). Ateena linna kaitsejumalannana. Võitles gigantidega ja oli mitme kreeka kangelase kaitsja. Tööosavusjumalannana kandis hoolt teaduse eest. Temalt kui muistse kaarikuvõidusõidu tundjalt õppisid inimesed hobuse ja vankri kasutamist, õpetas ka laevade ehitamist ning naistele ketramist ja kudumist. Leiutas flöödi ja rajas areopaagil kohtu. Pühadeks olenditeks peeti öökulli ja madu, pühaks puuks õlipuud. Athenat on kujutatud enamasti esemetega, mis olid vajalikud sõjas: kilbi, kiivri, oda ja aigisega.

How has the nature of fame changed? Imagine two celebrities standing in front of you: Audrey Hepburn and Kim Kardashian? Is there anything different in the way they are or how they became famous? It’s no surprise that the way celebrities present themselves has changed immeasurably since the Golden Age of Hollywood. Back in the day, celebrities were presented as incomparably glamorous, flawless beings, closer to gods than humans. Fame was controlled not by the famous and certainly not by the audience, but by the owners of the media. The lives of the rich and the famous used to be mysterious and even inexplicable. It was so foreign and artificial a construct that we thought that fame made you special. The rise of reality TV, however, was a major step in the changing nature of celebrity. “Normal people” became stars overnight. The dominance of smartphones and social media has meant that the public records everyth...
Towns in Roman Britain Ingrit Roosileht 7.Klass 2013 Roman roads The Romans built Britain's first towns. They built towns all over Britain as centers to administer the people they had conquered. Within 17 years of the invasion, they had several major towns connected by the famous Roman roads. Towns soon became important places for meetings and trade. What were Roman towns like? v The Roman towns were full of fine buildings and temples. v Streets were laid out in neat, straight lines, like on a chess- board. In the middle there was a large square, called the forum v Many towns had running water and sewers. Aqueducts were bridges for bringing water to the towns. Only the rich had water piped to their houses; everyone else used water from public fountains. The only toilets were public lavatories, which were built around the town and connected to underground sewers. Wh...

Sissejuhatus Aphrodite on vanakreeka mütoloogias armastuse-, ilu- ja viljakusejumalanna. Isegi kõige targemad alistusid tema võludele. Oma poja Erose nooltega oli Aphrodite võimeline muutma kirglikuks nii surelikud kui ka jumalad. Tema abiliste hulka kuulus noor pulmajumal Hymenaios. Aphrodite oli abielus sepp-jumala Hephaistosega, kuid ta ei olnud truu abikaasa ja sai lapsi veel mitmete teiste jumalatega, näiteks Dionysose ja Aresega. Päritolu Aphroditel on kaks sünnilugu, kuid mõlemal juhul on ta Zeusi tütar. Homerose järgi on ta ema Dione. Luuletaja Hesiodose järgi on ta aga Uranose tütar ja sündis merevahust ilma emata ja pärast isa surma. Armstusjumalanna Kreekas oli Aphrodite ainult armastusjumalanna. Ta oli väga sõjakas, kuid kreeklastele see ei meeldinud. Ainus võimalus, kuidas olla tunnustatud Olüm...
Kaia Teder K112 About One of the southern provinces of Thailand The island is connected to mainland Thailand by two bridges Country : Thailand Capital : Phuket City Area : 576.0 km2 Population : 600,000 (2013) The relatively recent name "Phuket" is apparently derived from the word bukit which means "hill", as this is what the island appears like from a distance. The symbol is a picture of Thao thep kasatri and Thao sri sunthon Heroines Monument. The reason for the use of the pictures of these heroines is because they protected the province from the Burmese in 1785 AD. Attractions Hat Patong is Phuket's most developed beach and is 3 kilometres long. Daytime activities are primarily centered around the beach with many watersport activities. Patong is equally well known for its nightlife. Patong is also a shopping option in Phuket. The northern end of Patong Bay is called Kalim and is a popular place for viewing the sunset and be...

EPIC ,,A long narrative poem on a great and serious subject, related in an elevated style, and centered on a heroic or quasi-divine figure on whose actions depends the fate of a tribe, a nation, or the human race. The traditional epics were shaped by a literary artist from historical and legendary materials which had developed in the oral traditions of his nation during a period of expansion and warfare" An epic is a lengthy narrative poem, ordinarily concerning a serious subject containing details of heroic deeds and events significant to a culture or nation. Nonetheless, epics have been written down at least since the works of Virgil, Dante Alighieri, and John Milton. Many probably would not have survived if not written down. The first epics are known as primary, or original, epics. One such epic is the Old English story Beowulf. Epic Conventions, or characteristics common to both type...
Percy Jackson and The Olympians: The Lightning Thief A film review by Bill Gibron The new Harry Potter wannabe, Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, gets so many things right that when it goes astray (which happens with more and more frequency as it goes along) you kind of wish it hadn't tried in the first place. Unless your last name is Harryhausen, you shouldn't really maneuver Greek mythology, and you definitely don't need to use it as a source from some Shrek-inspired collection of tired pop culture riffs. Yet that's exactly what this Chris Columbus helmed half-success does. We begin by learning that the fabled gods of old do exist, and that Zeus is especially mad at brother Poseidon. Seems the head hocho's magical lightning bolt has been stolen, and each accuses the other of using the crime as a means of starting an all out Olympian war. Zeus specifically blames Poseidon's son, Percy Jackson, and soon, all th...

The Romans came to Britain nearly 2000 years ago and changed our country. The Romans lived in Rome, a city in the centre of the country of Italy .One day, some years before Jesus Christ was born, the Romans came to Britain. First invasion - Caesar's first raid In August 55 B.C. (55 years before Jesus was born) the Roman general, emperor Julius Caesar invaded Britain. He took with him two Roman legions. After winning several battles against the Britons in South-East England he returned to France. Second invasion - Caesar's second raid In 54 B.C. Julius Caesar came to Britain again landing at Walmer near Deal in Kent. This time he brought with him five legions (30,000 foot soldiers) and 2,000 cavalrymen (horse riders). This time the Romans crossed the River Thames. After more fighting, the British tribes promised to pay tribute to Rome and were then left in peace for nearly a century. Third and final invasion In 43 A.D. (43 years after Je...

Renessanssi maalikunst Vara-renessanss Itaalias Risto Paalonen Madis Klein Sissejuhatus Renessanssi maalikunsti See haarab peamiselt 15-16 saj. Selle perioodi maalikunsti iseloomustab loodustunde tugevnemine ja realistliku looduslähedase käsitlusviisi lõplik võidulepääs. Maalikunstis rakendatakse kõiki perspektiivi ja anatoomia seadusi ning tähtsale kohale tõuseb portree ja skulptuur on jälle eraldi kunstiharu. Püüd reaalsuse poole valitseb eelkõige Itaalias ning sealt edasi teistesse Lääne-E maadesse. Kohe alguses ilmneb antiikkunsti mõju ja siit ka kunstiajastu nimi renaissance (taassünd). Vararenessansi maalikunst 15. sajandil jätkus freskomaali õitseng. Masaccio (1410-1428) püüdis maalida elavaid inimesi.

Pärnu Ühisgümnaasium Taimar Müller Muusikal Aida Referaat Sisukord Pärnu 2010 Sissejuhatus Aida on muusikal, mille muusika on kirjutanud Elton John ja laulusõnad Tim Rice. Aidat on mängitud Atlantas (1998), Chicagos (1999), Broadwayl (2000), Amsterdamis (2002) ja Tartus (2003). Valisin selle muusikali kuna see tundus olevat väga riskantne ettevõte, arvestades näiteks seda, et teose eelarve oli 15 miljonit USA dollarit. Teine põhjus on see, et kuigi see etendus on kuulus üle maailma, polnud mina sellest varem midagi kuulnud, seega tahtsin sellest kirjutada, et ka ise targemaks saada.

Nähtamatu Herbert George Wells 1897 Herbert George Wells (tavaliselt kasutatakse nimekuju H. G. Wells; 21. september 1866 13. august 1946) oli inglise kirjanik. Ta oli üks kirjanikest, kelle teosed panid aluse ulmekirjandusele. Wells oli sotsialist ja enamik tema teoseid sisaldab ühiskonnakriitilisi elemente. Sündis Kenti maakonnas Bromleys väikepoodniku peres. Käis koolis alguses Midhurstis, seejärel sai stipendiumi bioloogiaõpinguiks South Kensingtonis, kus omandas teadusbakalaureuse kraadi. Mõnda aega tegutses ta loengupidajana õpitud erialal, samal ajal pühendus järjest enam kirjandusloomele. Lühijuttude menu võimaldas tal seejärel hakata vabakutseliseks kirjanikuks. Paljud Wellsi ideed on osutunud ennustuslikeks: Näiteks aimas ta ette aatomienergia kasutuselevõttu ning sotsiaalseid protsesse, mille tehnoloogiline areng võib kaasa tuua. ...

Sissejuhatus. Fasistlike ideoloogiate üldpõhimõtted Erinevalt paljudest teistest Euroopa riikidest jäi fasistliku ideoloogia levik Suurbritannias 1920. ja 1930. aastatel marginaalseks. Kuigi näiteks Suurbritannia fasistlike liikumiste lipulaeva British Union of Fascists ülesehitamine toimus loogilise ja ammendava programmi alusel - rahva poolehoidu taotlevad aktsioonid järgnesid alles hiljem - , ei suudetud pikaajalise demokraatiatraditsiooniga brittidelt leida piisavat toetust. Mark Hagopian nimetab pärast Esimest maailmasõda Itaalias ja mujal Euroopas tekkinud fasistliku ideoloogia olulisimateks põhimõteteks etatismi, karismaatilist juhtimist, elitarismi, hüpernatsionalismi, voluntarismi, antiparlamentarismi ning antimarksismi (Hagopian 1993, 388). Lisaks on erinevad autorid nimetanud fasistliku ideoloogia põhitunnustena veel antikonservatismi, antiliberalismi, parteilisi võitlussalku ja eesmärki totalitarismile. Kahtlemata sobinuks...
MASS MEDIA By ''mass media '' we intend to those means of communication which can reach large or mass audiences. The most important are probably Television, Radio, the Press and Internet. The English-speaking peoples have always allowed more freedom of speech and of the press than most other countries. This gave them an advantage from the start in communications. The ground work for mass communications in the 20th century was laid in the 19th century by two inventions which allowed people to communicate by wire. These were the electric telegraph and the telephone. The telegraph was invented in Britain in 1837. They were being used in the Civil war. It allowed messages to be sent electrically over telegraph wires. This was much faster and more reliable than sending messages by horse messenger. the telephone was invented In 1876 by Alexander Graham Bell. The first radio broadcasts wer...

In my essay I will describe the most characteristic features of the Maori people and the aborigines. I will divide the essay in 3 parts the Maori people, the aborigines and their comparison. Maori are the host people of New Zealand. Their name is derived from Ma-Uri which means the children of heaven. The arrival of the Maori people to New Zealand is considered to be somewhat of a mystery. It is known that first Polynesians arrived to New Zealand about 1000 years ago, when navigator Kupe discovered the land in 950 AD. He named it Aotearoa The Land of the Long White Cloud. Although these facts can be debatable, I will focus my attention on this interpretation of Maori history. After the Maori arrived to New Zealand, they started to develop into tribes and sub tribes, this tribal system is still in use. Their culture had almost no influence from the rest of the world. They evolved a culture endorsed by agriculture and hunting. Of cour...
Susanna Oja Tartu Ülikool Skandinavistika osakond Eros ja Psyche Erose ja Psyche lugu on räägitud mitut versiooni. Isegi armastus- ja erootikajumala nimi ja päritolu varieeruvad erinevates tekstides. Enamasti jumaldati Erost/Amorit/Cupidot (edaspidi: Eros) koos Aphroditega, keda mõne loo järgi tema emaks peetakse. Kuid oli ka pühapaiku, kus austati ainult Erost, näiteks Thespeias ja Hellespontias. Teda kujutati kuldsete tiibadega alasti poisslapsena, kes hoiab käes vibu ja nooletuppe. Tema nooled ei läinud kunagi ühestki sihtmärgist mööda. Psyche oli seevastu kaunis surelik, kelle kauniduse imetlemiseks inimesed kaugetest paikadest kokku sõits...

FLRG.01.193 Heidi Järvpõld 01.01.2015 Puritanism in A model of Christian Charity A modell of Christian charity, also known as A City on a Hill, is the kind of Puritan literature example that can fade the suspicious reader’s doubts in the Puritan main ideology and beliefs. At least, this is how it seemed to me. This sermon can be seen as a gateway to the Puritan society’s attitude and mindset as it is one of the most classical examples of the Puritan era literature. Although John Winthrop was the leader of the Massachusetts Bay Colony which was filled with corrupted chiefs, he vigorously emphasizes in his writings the unity of community, love of othe...
