Myth of Courage Exposed in The Things They Carried

Oh, for the young man, they seemed very elegant and noble, if he fell into a war, and they cut into pieces under the bronze blade cut where he died It was done. . But regardless of death, all the wounds are signs of glory. (Homer 22.83 - 87) As a student, we were braintrated by ancient myths like Iliad. War was praised there, brave warriors praised them. However, contemporary novels like Tim O'Brien's "Things to Carry" (THINGS) are challenging these ideas. Like Iliad, things are wars. It concerns combat and soldiers, victory and survival, but O'Brien's message at THINGS is almost in contradiction to the story of traditional war.

What they carry: The American hero 'Tour Courage' of Tim O'Brien 's "They carry" is not a story about the personal experience of soldiers of the Vietnam War. It is not just his story that he fought for his country, God, and other soldiers. "Talking about courage" is not only a fable about disconnection from other countries of Vietnam, it is also a fable about barbara soldiers. A tradition that tells the behavior and adventure of legendary characters. It will always last through to the end of the world. Because the important concept of epics is the existence of heroes, they can endure all the trials and challenges that they may experience. Who will persuade the gods on your behalf, may you find the life you are looking for? Love is an incentive

The story of a traditional anonymous writer comes from the verbal tradition of culture. The characters of traditional myths are usually gods and heroes. Myths usually characterize the origins of things - gods, people, places, plants, animals, and natural events - usually from cosmology. Traditionally, cultural values ​​and belief systems have been inherited from generation to generation in myths. In literature myths may also point to narrative stories embodying the true truth about life. Myths are usually different from legends, legends have certain historical grounds.

Like most multi-choice questions, this problem is also hopeless. Iphigenia must die only to save myths, in this case Greek myths. Myths are essential and at least the way that each culture believes in their own myths is to think that things should be. There is no other end to myths, and of course there is no compromise. In this sense, mythological life is a problem free life. Because population groups can guide the story of personal life and can be used to cover uncertainty and ambiguity of a particular real life. As Thomas Man says, "Myths are an eternal pattern, a godly formula flowing when life expresses its characteristics in unconsciousness."
