TMA3 ‘In Rome myth was primarily a public and political tool.’ Do you agree with this statement? For this essay I wanted to first look into the political aspects of early Rome and explore whether myth was primarily a political tool for power and wealth‚ starting with the foundation myths of Augustus‚ I came across a quote “Emperors exploited myths and mythical characters to promote their images and values” (Block 2 pg. 153) and wanted to see weather myth had any involvement in how politician’s

Knowledge of the world is gained through rational intuition (clear and distinct idea) and reasoning & understanding
