Greek mythology is made up of the myths and legends around which the ancient Greeks centered their lives. The Ancient Greeks used it to explain events and components of the world around them. Their religion included gods and heroes, creation stories, and the origins of their civilizations and rituals. It is a subject that has been studied and examined in depth for thousands of years. The messages and influences of this fascinating religion are reflected in today's modern society, and many similarities can be found between Greek mythology and modern religions, such as Christianity. This proposal will describe the research and project I hope to complete. The subject of Greek mythology is too broad to research in the allotted time frame, so this research task focused on the Olympian gods. There are 12 Olympians. gods (see appendix 1), Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, Hera, Hestia, Ares, Athena, Apollo, Aphrodite, Hermes, Artemis and Hephaestus. All of these gods are related and related to each other in one way or another and are named after their home, Mount Olympus. These gods are said to have ruled after overthrowing the Titans, the original rulers. Zeus, Poseidon and Hades are the 3 brothers who each reign over their own element. Zeus is the supreme ruler of the gods and the sky. He is the god of rain and carries lightning as a weapon to punish those who displease him. He is known to punish those who lie or break their vows. Poseidon rules the ocean and carries a trident as a weapon, which can shake the earth. This can be seen in many modern films, but it is listed under its name in Roman mythology, Neptune. Poseidon had a very difficult and argumentative personality, and was also known for his greed. He tried to capture many cities, causing... middle of paper... demigods, who often became heroes of Greek mythology [e.g. Heracles (Hercules), son of Zeus and the mortal Alcmene] . The gods often came to humans in the form of animals, seduced them, impregnated them, then returned to Mount Olympus, where they sometimes watched over their children. This topic of imperfect gods and accessibility is fascinating. To highlight this captivating topic, I have decided to produce a major work for the English Extension 2 course. This will require me to write a series of short stories that describe my knowledge of Greek mythology. Several adjustments were made based on my skill level and time constraints. It was decided that four short stories of 1,000 words would be submitted to an HSC proofreader, with reflections to describe the progress of my project.
