Film discussion

  Your assignment, will be an essay discussing the actions of Achilles (Iliad), Odysseus (Odyssey) and the prisoner who breaks free (Plato's Allegory of the Cave). How do you describe the characters of these three actors, based on what they do and say? Submit your three page analysis on a Word document, double-spaced with 12-pitch font. You will not be penalized for exceeding three pages, but your score will be docked if the text falls short. Do your best to distribute evenly (one page each) your discussion of each of the three characters. Choose your own vocabulary as you describe the characters (brave, cowardly, arrogant, foolish, cunning, curious, adventurous, loving, hateful, vengeful, etc.). How do their actions support your description of their characters?
