Epic H.W

Definition of epic
An Epic is a story/poem usually talking about a hero and his great accomplishments.
3 characteristics
Frequent use of epithets: “The Greek warlord- and godlike Achilles” (line 200)
The gods and lesser divinities play an active role in the outcome of actions: “Athena came sent by the white armed goddess.
Use of patronymics (calling son by fathers name): “Daughter of Zeus” (line 212)

The reason I choose this picture was because it has a lot of characteristics, and what makes an epic is different types of characteristics and use of strong words, and heroic accomplishments.

My Favorite Public Hero

Harriet Tubman was born in the year 1820. Harriet Tubman was a African American, Union spy during the U.S Civil War. After escaping from captivity, She went back and rescued seventy other slaves. The way she accomplished this was by creating a network called the under ground rail road. Witch was just secret Hide out that they would create or find. They also created there own way of communication by hanging sheets with certain stains or colors and at a certain time. The reason i consider her a hero is because she cared about her raise and she believed in freedom for all. She also had to go through a lot of stuff as a child, And just thinking about the fact that she was beat as a little girl and now she's freeing people from slavery is amazing. Not every body liked Harriet Tubman many people wanted to kill her because she was freeing slaves from the people who owned them. But her raise loved her because she was worrying about others and she was helping them out.
