This idea is demonstrated when one examines the similarities between Lancelot and Odysseus, their differences, and the consequences of their actions on their lives. Although Lancelot and Odysseus lived in completely different and somewhat opposing time periods, their heroic and "larger than life" personalities share some quite distinguishing characteristics. I say that their time periods were somewhat opposing because the views of the culture ... therefore, the consequences or rewards of life reflect those actions. The literature produced by both the medieval Europeans and the ancient Greeks provides an informative glance into the ethics and archetypical standards by which they lived. The literature in the time of Odysseus presents the heroic ideal as one of extreme physical prowess but seems to be relentless in his constant pursuit of those who wrong him or are in any ...

As a child, he was often separated from others. During the ... Abele 12). Hawthorne's abundant use of solitude characters and stories comes from all his experiences of isolation. Having an isolated mother and being a writer, it is not so unusual for him to have lived such a separate life. "The life of a serious writer is likely to be in a large part lonely" (Stewart 37).

- 1077: Once And Future King: Analytical Paper
