  • The Titan's Curse
    THE TITAN'S CURSE Percy Jackson and the Olympians Book - 3 Rick Riordan ONE MY RESCUE OPERATION GOES VERY WRONG The Friday before winter break, my mom packed me an overnight bag and a few deadly weapons and took me to a new boarding school. We picked up my friends Annabeth and Thalia on the way. It was an eight-hour drive from New York to Bar Harbor, Maine. Sleet and snow pounded the highway. Annabeth, Thalia, and I hadn't seen each other in months, but between the blizzard and the thought of what we were about to do, we were too nervous to talk much. Except for my mom. She talks more when she's nervous. By the time we finally got to Westover Hall, it was getting dark, and she'd told Annabeth and Thalia every embarrassing baby story there was to tell about me. Thalia wiped the fog off the car window and peered outside. "Oh, yeah. This'll be fun." Westover Hall looked like an evil knight's castle. It was all black stone, with towers and slit windows and a big set of wooden double doors. It stood on a snowy cliff overlooking this big frosty forest on one side and the gray churning ocean on the other. "Are you sure you don't want me to wait?" my mother asked. "No, thanks, Mom," I said. "I don't know how long it will take. We'll be okay." "But how will you get back? I'm worried, Percy." I hoped I wasn't blushing.

  • Mythology, Greek, Roman Allusions
    Advanced Placement Tool Box Mythological Allusions –Classical (Greek), Roman, Norse – a short reference • Achilles –the greatest warrior on the Greek side in the Trojan war whose mother tried to make immortal when as an infant she bathed him in magical river, but the heel by which she held him remained vulnerable. • Adonis –an extremely beautiful boy who was loved by Aphrodite, the goddess of love. By extension, an “Adonis” is any handsome young man. • Aeneas –a famous warrior, a leader in the Trojan War on the Trojan side; hero of the Aeneid by Virgil. Because he carried his elderly father out of the ruined city of Troy on his back, Aeneas represents filial devotion and duty. The doomed love of Aeneas and Dido has been a source for artistic creation since ancient times. • Aeolus –god of the winds, ruler of a floating island, who extends hospitality to Odysseus on his long trip home • Agamemnon –The king who led the Greeks against Troy. To gain favorable wind for the Greek sailing fleet to Troy, he sacrificed his daughter Iphigenia to the goddess Artemis, and so came under a curse. After he returned home victorious, he was murdered by his wife Clytemnestra, and her lover, Aegisthus. • Ajax –a Greek warrior in the Trojan War who is described as being of colossal stature, second only to Achilles in courage and strength. He was however slow witted and excessively proud. • Amazons –a nation of warrior women. The Amazons burned off their right breasts so that they could use a bow and arrow more efficiently in war.

  • Greek God Pantheon.Pdf
    Zeus Cronos, father of the gods, who gave his name to time, married his sister Rhea, goddess of earth. Now, Cronos had become king of the gods by killing his father Oranos, the First One, and the dying Oranos had prophesied, saying, “You murder me now, and steal my throne — but one of your own Sons twill dethrone you, for crime begets crime.” So Cronos was very careful. One by one, he swallowed his children as they were born; First, three daughters Hestia, Demeter, and Hera; then two sons — Hades and Poseidon. One by one, he swallowed them all. Rhea was furious. She was determined that he should not eat her next child who she felt sure would he a son. When her time came, she crept down the slope of Olympus to a dark place to have her baby. It was a son, and she named him Zeus. She hung a golden cradle from the branches of an olive tree, and put him to sleep there. Then she went back to the top of the mountain. She took a rock and wrapped it in swaddling clothes and held it to her breast, humming a lullaby. Cronos came snorting and bellowing out of his great bed, snatched the bundle from her, and swallowed it, clothes and all. Rhea stole down the mountainside to the swinging golden cradle, and took her son down into the fields. She gave him to a shepherd family to raise, promising that their sheep would never be eaten by wolves. Here Zeus grew to be a beautiful young boy, and Cronos, his father, knew nothing about him.

  • Summer Reading, Mythology Study Guide the Why in the Course of the Next Four Years, Much of the Literature You Read Will Contain
    Summer Reading, Mythology Study Guide The Why In the course of the next four years, much of the literature you read will contain allusions to Greek mythology. The stories of King Midas (Merchant of Venice), Jason and the Argonauts (Merchant of Venice), and Prometheus (Frankenstein) all figure prominently in works you will read at St. X. (You may have already come across allusions to Eros and Psyche in Ender’s Game.) Knowing these allusions will help you to have a much deeper understanding of and appreciation for the works that you read. In addition, the English language contains a considerable number of words and phrases that were born in mythology (martial, panacea, euphemism, narcissistic). As a result, the English Department at St. Xavier feels that freshmen students will benefit from having a foundation in Greek mythology before they even enter the building. The What To encourage dedication to learning these stories, students can expect an objective test on the content contained in Heroes, Gods and Monster of the Greek Myths by Bernard Evslin within the first week of school. The How You’ll notice that Evslin’s book is broken up into four sections: THE GODS, NATURE MYTHS, DEMIGODS, and FABLES. To assist students in learning this content, the freshmen learning team at St. Xavier has created a study guide so that students can get a sense of what to study. We have organized the study guide into the same groupings as the ones contained in the book. Please be diligent in your study of the myths. This task will be one of your first opportunities to demonstrate your preparedness for high school.
