Through their actions they inspire others to have these same traits. One thing that sets heroes apart from average people is courage. Courage, the ability to endure fear or pain with strength. One of the most difficult things Fredrick Douglass had to do was escape slavery he felt,”The intense desires, now felt, to be free, quickened my present favorable circumstances, brought me to the determination to act as well as to think and speak.” (Douglass 95).
Heroes have appeared in all cultures throughout history. Joseph Campbell, expert mythologist, presents two types of heroes based on the hero deed. The spiritual hero, such as Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed, and Moses, gains insight and shares it with the people. The physical hero, such as Gandhi, Martin Luther King, and Mother Theresa, sacrifices himself for a cause, another individual or a people. Anthony Burns is a hero because he possessed the hero qualities of wisdom, courage, and self-sacrifice to perform the hero deed of creating a movement against slavery and freedom for all slaves.

Scott LaBarge’s essay “Heroes: Why Heroes are Important” is well written because he effectively uses pathos, logos, and karios when explaining heroes to his audience. When something goes wrong or we feel like we cannot continue, we could all use someone to step in and change our situation. Everyone needs a hero. LaBarge gives an excellent example from his high school days; Thoreau inspired him and became his hero. The high school period of one’s life is a difficult period.
Shirley Jackson wrote the famous short story The Lottery in 1948, a time where people often hosted these with cash or numerous prizes. The way the story is twisted, told, foreshadowed and characterized is impressive because it keeps the reader guessing, asking the questions, “Who will win?” and “What’s the prize?” That truly is the beauty in this story and how it keeps the reader on a hook like a fish, until that final pull to being on land, and in the bucket. The Lottery is a short story about an annual event in which one person is to be randomly chosen to be stoned to death by the people in the village. By using and impressive display of symbolism Jackson uses names, objects, and the setting to conceal the true meaning and intention of the
The hero’s entire life led up to that point of saving the victim was a result of the struggles
Every past and modern culture over the course of history, has its hero’s. A hero is a person or figure that others look up to and use as forms of protection. Many cherish the hero’s, they make up who we are today. The Anglo-Saxon hero, Beowulf, and the postmodern hero/hero’s, the soldiers, both show the traits of bravery, selflessness, and loyalty. To have the trait of bravery you have to have lots of confidence in yourself and have courage.
Looking back on the myths a hero did not have it easy. They faced a lot of tough challenges and had to sacrifice many things to gain their status. Also look at one Hero that is highly idolized and used to day, the American solider. Little kids dream of being them and do pretend battles while lacking to see the true meaning behind them. That heroic meaning is them risking their lives, that they walk away from their families knowing they might not come back.
No great hero goes down without a fight. Typically, when one hears the word “hero,” images of a great soldier, military leader, or even their favorite Avenger comes to mind. Yes- those are all heroes, but it can also be any person who stands for courage and holds onto their true beliefs through good times and bad. The great Socrates is the true epitome of a hero; this is most evident around the time of his death. While reading Plato’s “Apology” in The Trial and Death of Socrates, it is almost impossible to not be inspired by his bravery and tenacity.

Sermon Analysis Ghandi is person that to my generation almost seems as legend, but he lived, he was real, and his achievements through perseverance and non-violent activism impact our very world today. He led a whole nation towards independence and all while maintaining his morals and values intact. I chose to hear his speech on God, provided to us on Blackboard by Professor Cheryl Powell. This speech is very well given and direct, he speaks with great wisdom and coherence. The YouTube link does not provide a video of him giving the speech so it is just a recording.
