Think about the heroic characteristics and values you discovered in the myth "Perseus." Which heroic characteristics and values do you recognize in people who are considered heroic in today's world? Explain.

Perseus turned a sea monster to stone in Ethiopia to rescue beautiful Andromeda. The god Poseidon had caused Ethiopia to be flooded and plagued it with a sea monster. So Perseus became a hero by killing the sea monster and then married Andromeda. Today, I recognize as heroic, for example the President of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro who despite extremely protracted violent opposition attacks, ie in a seriously beleaugured situation, came up with a creative solution of the National Constituent Assembly and did his utmost to ensure the vote for its' members would take place ie having the courage to implement this for the vast majority of the Venezuelan people despite strong disapproval from Trump and some members of the European Union like Spain.
