This year, Advanced World Lit is exploring the evolution of literature. We are starting this exploration by looking at how heroes have changed throughout the course of history. We have started with epic heroes like Gilgamesh (an ancient Sumerian), Sundiata (and African epic hero), and Achillies (from ancient Greece). By the end of next week, we will have also explored Mulan (from China) and even Superman (yes, Superman).
I look forward to discussing how all of these heroes are similar, different, and how they have impacted society throughout the centuries/millenniums.
