From my prior knowledge, Hercules has been portrayed as both the "golden-boy" of heroes, and others show him as strong, but full of horrible flaws. Hercules is the son of Zeus and probably the most popular of the heroes today. In my opinion, he's the face of Greek mythology. I think the Greeks wrote him to be very flawed and yet heroic, and the most loved, hated, and controversial hero.
I know that Hercules is the son of Zeus and that he had incredible strength and power. I have watched the Disney animated version of Hercules which isn't completely accurate of how the greeks perceived him but I learned from it that he was the son of Zeus.
Hercules is the son of Zeus and he is the strongest greek hero. The greeks perceived him as having greater strength than any being before or after him.
I know that Hercules is the son of Zeus and that he had incredible strength and power. I have watched the Disney animated version of Hercules which isn't completely accurate of how the greeks perceived him. He was incredibly strong and often shadowed some of his siblings.
I know that Hercules is the son of Zeus and that he had great strength and power. He is one of the most well known Greek Heroes and I've seen the disney animated version many times. However, I learned in your English 9 class that the disney version is not an accurate portrayal and that Hercules actually killed his entire family.
I don't know very much about Hercules except for all the generic stuff. He was strong, he was half god half man, and he went to rescue someone from Hades.
He is the son of Zeus. Many movies made for him. He killed his family. 12 deeds from Hera to cure his madness. Slayed Nemion Lion. Was on the Argo. Has been the icon for all heros in greece. Super strong.
I know that Hercules is a hero with an outrageous affinity towards strength and power. I know that he is the most famous of the Greek heroes. I know that he is a demigod and that his immense physicality is a tool that he uses to defeat his foes. I also know that his greed for power and fame is contradictory to his perceived persona.
Hercules is one of many sons of Zeus. he has a godly power of super-strength. he also has many heroic traits such as bravery, willingness to sacrifice, and many more traits that classify him as a great hero
Hercules is the son of zeus, he killed his family. He has incredible strength and is known for being a hero. I have seen the disney version but i'm not sure how accurate that is.
Hercules is the so of Zeus and the most famous Greek hero, he murdered his whole family and to repent he went to do 7 impossible trials that Hera sent him on.
Hercules is the son of Zeus, who was stolen by Hades and wanted to turn mortal. It would have worked, but Hercules didn't drink every drop of the potion that Hades needed him to drink. Hercules then grew up in a normal town, but he was super reckless because he was so strong. He also got Pegasus as a gift from Zeus I think. That is all from the movie so I'm not sure how accurate it is.
I know that Hercules is a powerful and strong hero who is Zeus's son. I think he is viewed as a respected and loved hero who does a lot, but he also does commit many unheroic and mean acts.
I don't know the real story of Hercules I just know the Disney version. I know that he was the son of Zeus and that Hades was worried that he would get in the way of his plan to take over Zeus. Hades gave him a position to turn him mortal but it doesn't work. I have heard from other people on earth Hercules isn't as great as the Disney version makes him out to see. But I think that ending to the movie and the myth is the same. That he does defeat Hades and regains the power of his father.
I don't know much about Hercules. I know he's technically roman because he's Heracles in greek mythology. However I know he's the son of zeus/ whatever the roman zeus is. I don't know much else
Hercules is the most often portrayed version of a hero. Heroism is often derived from what Hercules did or would do in certain situations. He definitely wasn't perfect, but the great things he did for his people are recognized as some of the greatest achievements ever. He was very strong and brave, but he wasn't very smart.
From watching the Disney version about Hercules, I know that he is the of Zeus and wasn't born with his strength and power. He had to work hard and build his strength to prove himself to the gods and goddesses. This film might not be very accurate to what the actual myth describes but through that movie I learned his name, he was the son of Zeus, he is brave, and he had multiple flaws.
From my prior knowledge, I know that Hercules is the son of Zeus. He easily gets upset, and he even killed his family. He is very strong and is portrayed as a hero.
