Juno of Taris
Juno of Taris
Juno is a 13 year old girl. She is bald and so is every other person in Taris. She is very athletic, she likes swimming and going for walks across the mountains for her little adventures. All the people in Taris have to wear plain tunics not brightly coloured ones. They have to dress like that because instead of spending time on their appearance and what they look like; they have to use their time to survive.

Juno always gets her work done and takes action. She’s also very active. She stands up for herself and what she wants. There are 500 people in Taris but Juno is the only person that stands out to me because she is different to the other people in Taris. I think she is interesting because she asked why to shave their hair was a rule and it must have been a risk to ask the Governance Companions that question.

Juno mentioned that she wanted to grow her hair to the GC’s but they rejected her. She always throws tantrums whenever Nixar came to shave her hair every Friday. She eventually gets over it but once she starts hanging out with Vima, she’s in the influence of growing her hair again.

Juno is interesting because she seems to be quite rebellious by climbing the mountains which is really risky and that place is also forbidden but she always goes there with Vima and they go for swims without the other people in Taris knowing.

So overall, Juno seems to be quite the confident and always having-a-go type of person. My personal opinion on her is that she is hard-working and she’s really smart. She likes to have fun with her closest friends and they always have a good time. She doesn’t really care about what people will think of her and she’s not selfish. She’s always helping people out, and she’s a normal, teenage

    Of course, we must not forget that Juno played a role in leading Aeneas to kill Turnus by sending down one of her furies which crippled Turnus and gave Aeneas the upper hand (Aeneid, 12.1020-1045). I also don’t think that Aeneas seeing the belt of Pallas was…

    The Odyssey was a fascinating story that consisted of many challenges for the main character Odysseus. Many would assume as him the obvious hero of the epic novel. However, the character that struck my attention was Penelope; that is why I am considering her the true hero of The Odyssey. Although the reason why I considered her the hero…

    When I was deciding on a character, right away I chose Athena. I chose Athena because I believe she is the most interesting (besides Odysseus) character in the book. Speaking of Athena, Athena is a very important character in the first few chapter of the Odyssey. She is the one who puts Odysseus's son on the path to find Odysseus and learn what is his faith. She did this by showing up to Odysseus’s house in human form and convincing Telemakhos to call all of his mothers suitors in front of the gods and try to convince them to leave. When that didn't work “Athena was nearby and came to him, putting on Mentor’s figure and his tone,” and told him that she will find him a boat She told him to sneak out of the house and go down to the docks to…

    The "death" in this situation isn't that of literal death but of a figurative death as a parent. Both divorce and death involving someone very important being cut out of someone else's life; abandoning them in one way or another. It is also safe to assume that Juno's mother is "dead to her" due to her describing her mother's new children as "replacement kids" and her "cactus-grams" having a sting "worse than [her] abandonment", therefore furthering the metaphor of death in Juno's life. Secondly, when being seated at the abortion clinic, Juno is a witness to the cacophony of fingernails surrounding her: "Then she looks over and notices the [fingernails] of a nearby teen, who looks as nervous as she does... Suddenly, she sees fingernails [everywhere]."(Cody 20) The purpose of an abortion clinic is to extract the unborn fetuses of soon to be mothers who do not wish to give birth. The extraction causes the fetus to die. Most people who…
