    The greek hero Perseus is one of the most famous ancient greek hero figures in history. To begin telling his tale of heroism I must first start with his legacy. The grandson of Acrisius and the son of Zeus and Danae, Perseus was born from very strong parents. Acrisius got word from an oracle that if is daughter Danae birthed a son, the child would kill his father.

When Acrisius discovered that Danae had given birth to a son he cast her and Perseus into the sea in a golden chest. Miraculously…

    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…

    As you are an “Employee of Hades,” and a god of death, I have several questions for you. I know you are a very busy god, and I thank you for taking time out of your job to read and respond. I mean, people pass away all day, every day, so I will try to be brief. Firstly, there is a large amount of rumours about your appearance. Is it true that you have large wings? On many pictures and vases, you are portrayed as a ancient warrior with a helmet and beard, along with the wings mentioned before. Is that the truth ? If you have been depicted falsely, what is your true appearance, and why do authors and artists alike depict you in other ways?…

    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…
