Myths and heroes :



I am going to talk about the notion
of Myths and heroes. A definition of this notion is a myth can be defined as a
story about gods or heroes, it can be a popular belief or a tradition or a
false notion. A hero can be a mythological figure, a person who is admired for
his or her achievement, a superhero or maybe a role model or an icon.



The hero, an example deserving being imitated ?

Locations and forms of power :



I am going to talk the notion of
locations and forms of power. A definition of this notion is in politics and
social science, power is the ability to influence people’s behavior. In order
to live together members of a community accept rules, regulations, laws. The
helps to create social cohesion but can also lead to conflicts and tensions.
Even when authority seems absolute, there are always counter-powers which
question it, aim at limiting its excesses and resist it.



How the power influence our life condition ?
