Anxiety and Mythology Lucy
Mythology Lucy was the name of a powerful goddess. Her hair was long and straight, it was long enough to touch the ground. The color of her hair was unique. It was baby blue in the sun, but it was silver when the moon shone on it. She also had the most beautiful blue eyes. They looked like the deep sea. When she smiled, we saw her even and white teeth. She was naïve and charming. Her friendly and sweet smiles got others’ praise.
Lucy had a characteristic. She easily believed others. She had never lied to others because she believed that it was very wrong and had bad consequence. Lucy had also never doubled other people because she thought that everything in the world was kind, nice and virtuous. She had never said anything bad. In her heart, our world would have peace forever. There was no evil, war, or crime.
Once a poor farmer’s gold was stolen. No one admitted it and returned the gold to him. Others suggested Lucy that she should search everyone’s house to find the gold. Lucy didn’t do it because she believed that the thief would tell the truth. Finally, Lucy was right. Her kindness moved the thief. He returned the gold to the farmer quietly. Everyone was admired to Lucy because she solved the problem easily without made any trouble to others.
Foreseeing the future was Lucy’s magical power. It supported her as a goddess. That was a peculiar ability in the world. Her predictions had saved many people, even the whole earth. Everyone loved her, admired her and thanked her. No one could live without the great goddess, Lucy.
When Lucy, the supreme goddess, was a little baby, she was different from others. She was quiet and independent. She didn’t need others’ care. Her childhood was admired.
One day, a monster planned to kill her. The monster knew that Lucy would be a formidable goddess in the future. She would rule the earth. He didn’t want her to rule everything because he wanted to be the supreme and immortal god instead of her. He made a careful and

    ‘the new woman was persistently represented as a hysteric, whose degenerate emotionalism was both symptom and cause of social change. As symptom, her hysteria was a degenerate form of her natural affections. It was also thought to be a form of brain-poisoning induced by the pressures of modern life and by women’s attempts to resist their traditional roles and ape those of men’. Hysteria disabled women and prevented them from fulfilling their ‘natural’ roles of wives and mothers’. -102. Lucy is perhaps the most obviously modelled on the notions of hysteria prevalent in Stoker’s age. She appears excitable, restless and uneasy with an undefined anguish. We also hear of her physical and mental…

    Zeus And Leda Essay

    • 686 Words

    Leda can see all the good things that will happen to her children and the good that they will do, but with that she is also able to see the bad. One of her two daughters, Clytemnestras, was known for some unlikeable traits. She killed her husband after he returned from the 10 year Trojan war. Clytemnestras’ kids decided to get revenge for their father’s death and killed their mother. Another example of forseeing the future in a negative way would be the events that Helen caused. She cheated on her husband, Menelaus, with Paris which caused a war outbreak. In a sense the knowledge of the negative events that will happen could be a gift in disguise. As a mother, Leda, has the knowledge to help prevent the bad from happening or at least try.…

    <br>Now, I'm not only supposed to talk about how great she was and what her best trait was, but to describe how I have her trait. I definitely know I have some sense of how to make people laugh since I'm always doing it. Whether it's a silly face, or a smart comment on the side, people always snicker or laugh. It usually makes me feel good when I put another smile on someone's face. I know I won't be as good as Lucy, but I do know that she must have felt pretty great when she saw how many smiles she put on all those young ones faces.…

    Autobiography of a Face

    Lucy's description of her early disease is particularly upsetting. Her family, overwhelmed by financial and emotional turmoil because of the stress of her illness, is not as visible as the part they actually played. Lucy's mother was a somewhat blurred figure who seemed to disappear by the middle of the book and portrayed her father as a particularly vague individual. However, the day-to-day trappings of illness force her to rely on her mother, whose relationship is one of the most disturbed, and moving. Early on she comments that when she was a child she didn't understand that her mother's anger was caused by depression, but she never elaborates on this observation. Her mother compares being brave with being good, and says: "At a time when everything in my family was unpredictable and dysfunctional… here I had been supplied with a formula of behavior for gaining acceptance and, I believed, love. All I had to do was perform heroically and I could personally save my entire…

    Inanna Goddess

    In the ancient world of Mesopotamia, we see that both religion and myth were used as devices with which people could explain the world around them and their unanswered questions. Because mythological stories and religion were so intertwined, many gods appeared not only as deities but fictional characters in their stories, and this essay will argue that was very much the case with the goddess Inanna. Also known later as Ishtar, Inanna could be considered a goddess of many aspects in the same sense that characters in modern storytelling are multifaceted in a reflection of human complexity. This essay will explore firstly her apparent aspect of power and violence that could make her appear to be a goddess of war and how that aspect intertwines…

    Foreshadowing In Dracula

    Many nights Lucy was found out of her bed in the middle of the night sleepwalking. Sometimes Lucy sleepwalked only through the house but other times out of the house and into the cemetery. In the novel Jonathan foreshadows a number of situations how ever one of the more important moments of foreshadowing is when Lucy became ill. Then, we saw her condition worsen as the novel went on. In one of Mina Murray's journals she says, “Lucy walks more than ever, and each night I am awakened by her moving about the room” (Stoker 62). In this part of the novel Mina is explaining one of the situations Jonathan had foreshadowed earlier in the story. Not only does Jonathan foreshadow things that happen to Lucy, but he also foreshadows actions of other characters in the novel. For example, Jonathan Harker foreshadows the situation of Renfield and the insane asylum. This relates back to madness and confinement because if it was not for confinement the madness that has been developing throughout the novel would never have…
