Read several different myths about Athena, Aphrodite, Zeus, Hercules, Medusa, etc. and feel free to search both Greek and Roman mythology sites. After having some experience reading through these stories, complete a written response that addresses why many video games and movies use either the characters from these myths or their archetypes.

Think about: The characteristic(s) the character(s) have. Consider what he/she/they represent in humanity. Think about the human experience or condition and consider the recurrent patterns and themes of success, power, challenge, love, loss, perseverance, and failure.

Writing Expectations: ALWAYS consider the following:

Inform your reader of the specific myths you reference.
Be sure to use third person perspective when addressing the majority of this assignment (NO pronoun “you” or “I” should be used in formal, academic writing.)
