Mythology Syllabus
Hello Liz, This is Md.Multazim Chowdhury. I'm also going to transfer at Oakland University from winter semester, 2017. This course is a requirement to complete the transfer guide as well. I have a deep interest about Mythology. I have read a lots of book about different myths, Religious and Cultural traditions of various ancient group. The story of Olympic and valentine day actually insist me to acquire more knowledge about Mythology. So I think this course is a great opportunity to attain more explicit knowledge about Mythology.

    Fate is the development of events beyond a person's control, regarded as determined by a supernatural power. While will refers to a property of the mind, and an attribute of acts intentionally committed. Actions made according to a person's will are called willing or voluntary. One of the recurring questions is the question of "free will", and the related but more general notion of fate, which asks how will can be truly free if the actions of people have natural or divine causes which determine them, but which are not really under the control of people. The question is directly connected to discussions of what Freedom is, and also the "problem of evil", because it brings into question whether people really cause their own acts. Fate and Will, two different forces. What if these two powers will oppose each other? Fate vs. Will…

    When Apollo was born, he killed the giant serpent Python who had been harassing his mother. In the town of Delphi, his shrine was the most visited as he provided a direct link between the mortals and the gods, and he also helped protect the mortals. He is the most handsome god that there is, and is extremely selfless, as well as being skilled at most tasks, and is very determined to succeed. Apollo is hardly portrayed in a negatively light, mostly poetic and beautiful.…

    It was a world of mystery, but mystery of which her great, adoring, simple Titan held the golden key. When she saw the coffer which never was opened, what then more natural than that she should ask Epimethus what it contained? But the contents were known only to the gods. Epimethus was unable to answer. Day by day, the curiosity of Pandora increased. To her the gods had never given anything but good. Surely there must be here gifts more precious still. What if the Olympians had destined her to be the one to open the casket, and had sent her to earth in order that she might bestow on this dear world, on the men who lived on it, [Pg 7] and on her own magnificent Titan, happiness and blessings which only the minds of gods could have conceived? Thus did there come a day when Pandora, unconscious instrument in the hands of a vengeful Olympian, in all faith, and with the courage that is born of faith and of love, opened the lid of the prison-house of evil. And as from coffers in the old Egyptian tombs, the live plague can still rush forth and slay, the long-imprisoned evils rushed forth upon the fair earth and on the human beings who lived on it—malignant, ruthless, fierce, treacherous, and cruel—poisoning, slaying, devouring. Plague and pestilence and murder, envy and malice and revenge and all viciousness—an ugly wolf-pack indeed was that one let loose by…

    Greek Myths are known around the world for being responsible for other things we as humans can’t control.

It seems as when moved into a new century the gods just disappeared and nothing no new gods came to take the place of the gods.

    Each time I play the game I find something new. Final Fantasy XIII’s connections to mythology is one of the main reasons I decided to take this class, it may seem imprudent, but since the game which is based so much off of mythology brought me great interest, I thought a class based off of mythology would as well. Most importantly, like myths, Final Fantasy has taught me many important life lessons, and has given me stories that will stay close to my heart and last a…

    Although I had visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art before, I had never really taken the time to really look at the statues that they had displayed. I knew that this time around I had to take my time and I had to make sure I paid attention to art that the museum had to offer. What I was mainly looking for was some type of statue or art that alluded to what I had learned in mythology class. As I walked around I encountered at bronze statue of Eros sleeping. Cupid, Eros name, which most people call him, is a little boy and he is sleeping. I began to think about information about Eros that I already knew and what I wanted to find out.…

    Essay On Greek Myths

    “The characters, stories, themes and lessons of Greek mythology have shaped art and literature for thousands of years. They appear in Renaissance paintings such as Botticelli’s Birth of Venus and Raphael’s Triumph of Galatea and writings like Dante’s Inferno; Romantic poetry and libretti; and scores of more recent novels, plays and films.” I think that it is great that the ancient Greeks came up with these myths. When I first started reading and listening about the Greek myths, I thought they were totally absurd. However, I now think that some myths tell entertaining stories and teach great lessons. Through this paper I will tell you about one of the myths we share today in our culture, share what Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung had to say about mythic structures of the human psyche, and explain why myths such as these bring us together socially and culturally.
