Is telemachus a hero? (rewrite)

    I believe that Telemachus is a hero because he will for his entire life fight for what he believes in, he trys to find the king of ithaca so that Ithaca can go back to being a great country, he may be young but he will fight for the rights of his people and for the rights of his kingdom. An example is even when he is told that his father is dead he still does not believe and travels all over to try and find his father. He fights for his rights of his people by not letting his mother mary a suior and making sure the suitors dont try anything stupid like trying to take over Ithaca. Telemachus is a hero by searching for his father because his father is in the scariest worst places to be and telemachus still believes he is alive and still wantsd to help him. My conclusion to this is that Telemachus may e seen by many as a coward and a child but in my mind telemachus is a true genuine hero.

Is Odysseus a Hero? (rewrite)

Is Odysseus a Hero?
By: Michael Boarman
          I think that Odysseus is a hero because instead of being cruel to his crew he is kind and cares for his crew like a hero should. An example of how Odysseus is a hero is that he when on calypsos’ island doesn’t try to take over but try’s to live like the people and join the people so that they can flourish with each other.  He does this because he knows that these people saved him from the ocean and helped regain health and stature. Odysseus is a hero because he fights for the rights of his people and he is a great fighter who does what is right. He fights for the rights of his people by going to war to increase the wealth and the health of his people. He fights for his peoples rights by sending the people who caused the suffering away. My conclusion for this topic is that Odysseus is a hero because he has a kind heart and fights for the rights of his kingdom and for the rights of his people. Odysseus is a true and honorable hero.
        I think that Odysseus is a hero because he is strong, he fights for his rights, and works all day long to serve his people. An example is that throughout the book Odysseus does everything to get back home to help his people. He does this because he works all day long and is a strong ruler and he knows that others are trying to take away what he put hard work and sweat into making. He fights for his rights by fighting against the suitors who stole what was rightfully his. He is strong and a hard worker because he spends his day by not thinking about himself, but what he can do for his kingdom and his people. My conclusion is that Odysseus is a strong, a fighter, and a hard worker is because he has the while and the stride to do what others cant and goes where others can never go.

An example of how Odysseus is a hero is that he doesn’t whip or hurt his crew he helps them when they need it and rescues them when they need it. He does this because he knows that his crew is all he has and that they are like a family. Odysseus is a hero because he fights for the rights of his people and he is a great fighter who does what is right. He fights for the rights of his people by going to war to increase the wealth and the health of his people. He fights for his peoples rights by sending the people who caused the suffering away (the suitors). My conclusion for this topic is that Odysseus is a hero because he has a kind heart and fights for the rights of his kingdom and for the rights of his people. Odysseus is a true and honorable hero.
