The Nature of Epic Heroes as Found in “The Iliad”, “The Ramayana”, “The Aeneid”, “Beowulf”, and “The Odyssey”
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing the nature of the epic heroes. Heroes, whether by classic, epic or traditional definitions have several common elements which allow them to be called “heroes”. The epic classics written by Homer and Virgil show us that not only are heroes brave, loyal, courageous and wise but they also encounter several similar elements in their journey to becoming heroes. All heroes have a “calling” in which they feel they are above other mortal men and are called into an adventure whether willingly at first or not, they feel they must go. They all must overcome certain obstacles in their path to their quest. They all fulfill their quest and then return home. In most cases as well, the hero may learn from a mentor and/or may experience a spiritual transformation at the end which shows he has somehow benefited from his adventure. Examples of the characteristics which make an epic hero are given in the heroes of Achilles from “The Iliad”, Rama from “The Ramayana”, Aeneas from “The Aeneid”, Beowulf from “Beowulf”, and Odysseus from “The Odyssey”. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
