Zeus fell in love with Lamia and the two bore many children. Green with envy‚ Hera stole and viciously murdered Lamia’s children in revenge; subsequently‚ Lamia gouged her own eyes out in anguish of her lost children.

Monsters Greek mythology is usually not given that much attention by the average person. I personally believe the obtainable information that is offered by Greek mythology is not pursued too often by people in today’s society due to the fact that they do not think there is a point of doing so. I myself was one of these people who had this closed mindset. People do not realize that a relation can be formed with the meaning behind some of these Greek creatures. These Greek creatures are not just a

The “Monster” How would you feel if your first memory was your creator running away from you in horror? The being isn’t given time to acclimate to the world around him. There’s no possible way that a newborn could comprehend and decide to be evil. You must be taught right from wrong. The creation was labeled as wretch and then ignored. He isn’t given a chance to become anything but a monster. Through Victor Frankenstein‚ the cottagers‚ and the world this marvelous creation morphs into what he is

Movie Conflict Management Style: The movie I chose to watch for this assignment was Monster-in-Law. Jane Fonda plays a over barring mother who believes no one is good enough for her son. Jenifer Lopez plays the woman in question‚ who spends the entire movie fighting over her fiancé with her “monster in law”. If you haven’t seen this movie I highly recommend it. The relationship between the bride and soon-to-be mother in law perfectly displays competition management style. Marquis & Huston (2015)
