Becoming a Hero "A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself" (Campbell 1). When we think of heroes most of us think of movie stars or professional athletes‚ but it’s not always about your popularity or talent it can also be about how you help society.

2013 2nd Block The Epic Hero An epic hero is a man of extraordinary strength‚ distinguished courage‚ and talent admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities.

A hero‚ in the opinion of others‚ has heroic qualities or has performed a heroic act‚ and is regarded as a model or ideal. Beowulf is a character of a legendary epic hero. He becomes a leader of

Who is a hero? “A hero can be anyone even a man doing something as simple and reassuring as putting a coat around a little boy’s shoulder to let him know the world hadn’t ended‚”(Nolan‚ C.‚ 2012).

The concept of the hero is as old as myth itself. Throughout history both concepts have evolved together. Myths tell tales of the adventures of man‚ frequently the son of a god or goddess and a human‚ who is endowed with great promise and destined to perform great feats.

The Proper Definition of a Hero What is the true definition of a hero? It seems to vary from person to person. Does one wear funny tight pants‚ or is he clever‚ like a fox? I feel that none of that is true. A hero can be strong or smart. One may be inspiring‚ or even just a mercenary who does something great for another person. The thing is is that one may even be an ordinary person‚ doing an extraordinary action. A hero is one who will show courage and perseverance even when the odds are against

People who help someone‚ or do a good deed can be classified as a hero‚ it doesn’t have to be someone who saves someone’s life. It can be as simple as giving someone a compliment. To start‚ a hero means you overcome

A Roman Hero Aeneas can truly be considered a Roman hero in Virgil’s poem The Aeneid. Not only does Aeneas represent a true Roman hero‚ but he also represents what every Roman citizen is called to be.
