  • Greek Mythology at the Service of the Portuguese Inquisition: the Case of Hercules and the Hydra of Lerna
    Athens Journal of Mediterranean Studies- Volume 1, Issue 1 – Pages 25-44 Greek Mythology at the Service of the Portuguese Inquisition: The Case of Hercules and the Hydra of Lerna By Milton Dias Pacheco Greek mythology has been along the centuries a fruitful source of inspiration to artists and writers, as it possesses the strength of expressing symbolically the most common circumstances of life. Regarding the threats that in every age put in danger human life the most popular figure was maybe the Hydra that infested the region of the Lake of Lerna, in Argolis. This mythical figure may still have an older origin as it is connected with chthonic dangers. Because of its terrifying aspect, reptilian traits and poisonous breath, it was related to the evil and the domains of Hell. Later the Hydra significance became larger and deeper as it represented the heresies that could affect the Christian orthodoxy. According to this point of view, every defender of the Catholic Faith was immediately compared to Hercules, the Greek hero who succeeded in killing the mythological Hydra monster. In this way, it is easy to understand why this representation was often used in connection with the Iberian Habsburg Kings, as it worked as a political strategy of this dynasty, in which the Spanish Habsburgs were faced as the guardians and defenders of the Church of Rome, mainly in times when the Inquisition developed a determinative role. An illustrative example of this was the decoration of the arch built by the Inquisition in Lisbon, when King Philip II of Portugal visited the Portuguese Empire capital.

  • Why No Wonder Woman?
    Why No Wonder Woman? A REPORT ON THE HISTORY OF WONDER WOMAN AND A CALL TO ACTION!! Created for Wonder Woman Fans Everywhere Introduction by Jacki Zehner with Report Written by Laura Moore April 15th, 2013 Wonder Woman - p. 2 April 15th, 2013 AN INTRODUCTION AND FRAMING “The destiny of the world is determined less by battles that are lost and won than by the stories it loves and believes in” – Harold Goddard. I believe in the story of Wonder Woman. I always have. Not the literal baby being made from clay story, but the metaphorical one. I believe in a story where a woman is the hero and not the victim. I believe in a story where a woman is strong and not weak. Where a woman can fall in love with a man, but she doesnʼt need a man. Where a woman can stand on her own two feet. And above all else, I believe in a story where a woman has superpowers that she uses to help others, and yes, I believe that a woman can help save the world. “Wonder Woman was created as a distinctly feminist role model whose mission was to bring the Amazon ideals of love, peace, and sexual equality to ʻa world torn by the hatred of men.ʼ”1 While the story of Wonder Woman began back in 1941, I did not discover her until much later, and my introduction didnʼt come at the hands of comic books. Instead, when I was a little girl I used to watch the television show starring Lynda Carter, and the animated television series, Super Friends.

  • How Disney's Hercules Fails to Go the Distance
    Article Balancing Gender and Power: How Disney’s Hercules Fails to Go the Distance Cassandra Primo Departments of Business and Sociology, McDaniel College, Westminster, MD 21157, USA; [email protected] Received: 26 September 2018; Accepted: 14 November; Published: 16 November 2018 Abstract: Disney’s Hercules (1997) includes multiple examples of gender tropes throughout the film that provide a hodgepodge of portrayals of traditional conceptions of masculinity and femininity. Hercules’ phenomenal strength and idealized masculine body, coupled with his decision to relinquish power at the end of the film, may have resulted in a character lacking resonance because of a hybridization of stereotypically male and female traits. The film pivots from hypermasculinity to a noncohesive male identity that valorizes the traditionally-feminine trait of selflessness. This incongruous mixture of traits that comprise masculinity and femininity conflicts with stereotypical gender traits that characterize most Disney princes and princesses. As a result of the mixed messages pertaining to gender, Hercules does not appear to have spurred more progressive portrayals of masculinity in subsequent Disney movies, showing the complexity underlying gender stereotypes. Keywords: gender stereotypes; sexuality; heroism; hypermasculinity; selflessness; Hercules; Zeus; Megara 1. Introduction Disney’s influence in children’s entertainment has resulted in the scrutiny of gender stereotypes in its films (Do Rozario 2004; Dundes et al. 2018; England et al. 2011; Giroux and Pollock 2010). Disney’s Hercules (1997), however, has been largely overlooked in academic literature exploring the evolution of gender portrayals by the media giant. The animated film is a modernization of the classic myth in which the eponymous hero is a physically intimidating protagonist that epitomizes manhood.

The king had a beautiful daughter The god saw he could not beat Hercules in a regulation named Dejanira. When it came time for Dejanira to wrestling match. It was then that he took the form of a marry, her father announced a contest: the strongest snake that slithered out of the strong man’s arms. He of her suitors would win her hand. coiled himself and gave a hiss. Hercules laughed and spoke for the first time. Achelous, the river god, was by far the strongest in the region. But Dejanira’s beauty was known everywhere, “A snake!” he said. “Is that the best you can do? I’ve been so it wasn’t long before Hercules came to Calydon to killing snakes since I was a babe in the crib.” try his luck. What might have seemed a wild boast was entirely true, Hercules was the strongest mortal in the world, but and Achelous knew it.

  • Cold War Fantasies: Testing the Limits of the Familial Body Wonder
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by E-space: Manchester Metropolitan University's Research Repository Cold War Fantasies: Testing the Limits of the Familial Body Wonder Woman 1947-1967 was written by Robert Kanigher - the longest writing stint of any in her seventy year history. Kanigher revamped the character in 1958 to fit a more cosy post-Wertham storyline where she lived a fantasy existence on Paradise Island. The images, drawn mainly by Ross Andru and Mike Esposito softened Wonder Woman's image from a warrior woman to a teen romance heroine with a doe-eyes and full lips. Instead of warrior boots she wore Greek sandals tied up with straps around her legs. Kanigher also introduced more stories of life on Paradise Island and they must have been popular with readers because they featured in sixteen out of the twenty-three issues in this era. Also Wonder Woman appeared in the top thirty best selling comics with a readership of over 200,000.1 The demands by readers for more of these stories in letters pages and within the storylines themselves, demonstrate they must have hailed, some aspects of readers' lives in Cold War America. Yet despite her popularity, this era is one of the most overlooked in Wonder Woman scholarship, possibly because the stories were regarded as fairytales told to a teenage female readership. Yet this era throws up some fascinating cultural paradoxes. Wonder Woman posed a problem in 1950s and '60s because she challenged the perceived role of women as reliant on men in family life and the job market.
