Relationship Between Artium And Persephone
Artium and Persephone
Artium, who is the goddess of all arts and culture, is the youngest out of all of Zeus and Hera’s children. This made it hard for her because she would be teased and mocked by her brothers and sisters. She requested the power to remember all things good and disremember the bad almost instantly; she thought this would be perfect because if she was making a new work of art, she can remember the anatomy of a body, or the atmosphere of the place she is painting. Artium has a slim build, long brown hair with a beautiful flower crown which held roses and daisies, also a cream coloured robe that went down to her ankles. Her love was the son of Zeus and the Pleiad Maia, and the second youngest of the Olympian gods, Hermes. Hermes

Suddenly the ground started to rumble and caved in. Wrinkly, old hands reached out and grabbed Persephone by her arms and legs. This all happened while Artium was watching. Soon the ground fixed itself and Persephone was missing. Artium needed to tell Persephone's mom, Demeter that her daughter has been abducted by the god of the underworld, Hades. But she remembers that she wished to be granted the power to remember the good and disremember the bad for eternity. She tries to run to Hermes but she is too late, she was around halfway to meeting with Hermes so he could go tell Demeter before she has forgotten. But she was clueless, she knew something bad happened, but she has no memory of what happened. She continues to run to Hermes to tell him to tell Demeter that something bad has happened. When she got there, she was gasping for breath. She yells his name, “Hermes! Something bad happened to Persephone” Hermes says “What happened?” “All I know was that I was getting ready for my next work of art, I saw what happened to her, yet the fond memory is blurred so much I cannot describe anything, you need to tell Demeter” Demeter learned about what happened, She searches for her daughter, she soon learns what happened after

    The movie leaves out a few important characters that were told in Perseus’s original myth. Originally, Perseus set out on his quest for Medusa’s head in order to save his mother Danae from King Polydectes. In the movie however, they replace the importance of his mother with his lover Io, who he must save from the sea monster, the Kraken. Film makers know the importance of a love story in today’s movies, which is probably why they make this change. Also, the movie is given an obvious villain, which is where Hades is brought into it. With him being the easily identifiable evil character, that leaves no room for confusion. Perseus’s character is only given minor changes from the original myth to the movie, still portraying him as a brave and compassionate…

    The most important immortal character in the Odyssey would undoubtedly be Athena, who is the daughter of Zeus, and the goddess of wisdom, battle, and other feminie arts such as weaving and farming. In homer’s epic, she plays the role of the guardian of Odysseus and Telemachus, saving Odysseus and helping him through many difficult situations, including his shipwreck caused by Poseidon (homer 5) and the encouraging him through the one-sided battle with the suitors (Homer 22). She does not merely impart sense and safety to her passive charge, however. She takes an interest in Odysseus for the talents he already has and actively demonstrates. She also often helps Telemachus—as when she sends him off to Pylos and Sparta to earn a name for himself. But she has the most affection for Odysseus. Athena is practical, clever and a master of disguises, and a great warrior, for an example of Athena being a master of disguises, she, on several occasions, transformed herself into either an old man or a “forgotten” friend of Odysseus’ father (Homer 17). Athena is one of the most typical femme fatale portrayed in ancient Greek literature due to the skills she possess which are potentially lethal…

He continued traveling from town to town, city to city, stealing every single object he desired, but very soon, he was bored of everything as he was much more powerful than all human beings and nothing seemed to satisfy his greed. So he sat down against a wall next to some homeless people in Rome, as he wanted to take a quick nap. "Move out the way!" shouted a roman soldier, Hermes opened his eyes slowly and saw from afar in a distant crowd, a small child running away from some Roman soldiers as it seemed that the child had stolen some bread.

    One part of the myth is how Demeter reacts to losing Persephone. In the three versions, Demeter’s reaction is fairly similar. Obviously she is enraged and wants her daughter back, so she stopped the earth’s ability to produce grain or seed. In one version, Laura Strong states that Demeter is consumed by depression and essentially forgets about her worldly duties. This could symbolize the relationship between a mother and her child in the way that a mother will postpone her duties as a person (or goddess) to care for her child. As for the original…
