“The Adventures of Perseus” From Metamorphoses

Choose one myth and explain the reasons why you chose that particular myth. In your opinion, what kind of important insight or wisdom does it contain for your own person? Moreover, why do you think the ancients told that story? What kind of lesson you think it provides for an ancient and/or modern audience in general?

You need to talk about a specific ‘mythical’ story, not provide just the discussion of the characteristics of one God or Goddess. Of course, within the story, you can discuss the mythical characters and their personality.

No citations or bibliography required, just state clearly what myth you are referring to. Of course making reference to ancient sources and secondary sources also with quotes, it will better the quality of your paper. For bibliographical references you can use any style (Chicago, MLA, etc.) as long as you are consistent.
