All literature is based on a myth – garden of Eden.(3)Symbolism: the American puritan’s metaphorical mode of perception waschiefly instrumental in calling into being a literary symbolism which is distinctly American.(4)With regard to their writing, the style is fresh, simple and direct; the rhetoric isplain and honest, not without a touch of nobility often traceable to the direct influence of the Bible.II.Overview of the literature1.types of writingdiaries, histories, journals, letters, travel books, autobiographies/biographies, sermons2.writers of colonial periodAnne Bradstreet/ Edward Taylor/ Roger Williams/ John Woolman/ Thomas Paine/ Philip FreneauIII.Jonathan Edwards1.works(1)The Freedom of the Will(2)The Great Doctrine of Original Sin Defended(3)The Nature of True Virtue2.ideas – pioneer of transcendentalism(1)The spirit of revivalism(2)Regeneration of man(3)God’s presence(4)Puritan idealismIV.Benjamin Franklin1.works(1)Poor Richard’s Almanac <穷查理的历书>(2)Autobiography2.contribution(1)He helped found the Pennsylvania Hospital and the American PhilosophicalSociety.(2)He was called “the new Prometheus who had stolen fire (electricity in this case)from heaven”.(3)Everything seems to meet in this one man –“Jack of all trades”.

Americanromantic authors tended more to moralize. Many American romantic writings intended to edify more than they entertained.(3)The “newness” of Americans as a nation is in connection with Am ericanRomanticism.(4)As a logical result of the foreign and native factors at work, Americanromanticism was both imitative and independent.III.Washington Irving1.several names attached to Irving(1)first American writer(2)the messenger sent from the new world to the old world(3)father of American literature2.works(1)A History of New York from the Beginning of the World to the End of theDutch Dynasty(2)The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent. (He won a measure ofinternational recognition with the publication of this.)(3)The History of the Life and V oyages of Christopher Columbus(4)A Chronicle of the Conquest of Granada(5)The Alhambra3.style – beautiful(1)gentility, urbanity, pleasantness(2)avoiding moralizing – amusing and entertaining(3)enveloping stories in an atmosphere(4)vivid and true characters(5)humour – smiling while reading(6)musical languageIV.James Fenimore Cooper1.works(1)Precaution (1820, his first novel, imitating Austen’s Pride and Prejudice)(2)The Spy (his second novel and great success)(3)Leatherstocking Tales (his masterpiece, a series of five novels)The Deerslayer, The Last of the Mohicans, The Pathfinder, The Pioneer,The Prairie2.point of viewthe theme of wilderness vs. civilization, freedom vs. law, order vs. change, aristocrat vs. democrat, natural rights vs. legal rights3.style(1)highly imaginative(2)good at inventing tales(3)good at landscape description(4)conservative(5)characterization wooden and lacking in probability(6)language and use of dialect not authentic4.literary achievementsHe created a myth about the formative period of the American nation. If the history of the United States is, in a sense, the process of the American settlers exploring and pushing the American frontier forever westward, then Cooper’s Leatherstocking Tales effectively approximates the American national experience of adventure into the West. He turned the west and frontier as a useable past and he helped to introduce western tradition to American literature.Section 2 Summit of Romanticism – American TranscendentalismI.Background: four sources1.Unitarianism 一神论者(1)Fatherhood of God(2)Brotherhood of men(3)Leadership of Jesus(4)Salvation by character (perfection of one’s character)(5)Continued progress of mankind(6)Divinity of mankind(7)Depravity of mankind2.Romantic IdealismCenter of the world is spirit, absolute spirit (Kant)3.Oriental mysticismCenter of the world is “oversoul”4.PuritanismEloquent expression in transcendentalismII.Appearance1836, “Nature” by EmersonIII.Features1.spirit/oversoul2.importance of individualism3.nature – symbol of spirit/Godgarment of the oversoul4.focus in intuition (irrationalism and subconsciousness)IV.Influence1.It served as an ethical guide to life for a young nation and brought about the ideathat human can be perfected by nature. It stressed religious tolerance, called to throw off shackles of customs and traditions and go forward to the development of a new and distinctly American culture.2.It advocated idealism that was great needed in a rapidly expanded economywhere opportunity often became opportunism, and the desire to “get on”obscured the moral necessity for rising to spiritual height.3.It helped to create the first American renaissance –one of the most prolificperiod in American literature.V.Ralph Waldo Emerson1.works(1)Nature(2)Two essays: The American Scholar, The Poet2.point of view(1)One major element of his philosophy is his firm belief in the transcendence ofthe “oversoul”.(2)He regards nature as the purest, and the most sanctifying moral influence onman, and advocated a direct intuition of a spiritual and immanent God in nature.(3)If man depends upon himself, cultivates himself and brings out the divine inhimself, he can hope to become better and even perfect. This is what Emerson means by “the infinitude of man”.(4)Everyone should understand that he makes himself by making his world, andthat he makes the world by making himself.3.aesthetic ideas(1)He is a complete man, an eternal man.(2)True poetry and true art should ennoble.(3)The poet should express his thought in symbols.(4)As to theme, Emerson called upon American authors to celebrate Americawhich was to him a lone poem in itself.4.his influenceVI.Henry David Thoreau1.works(1)A Week on the Concord and Merrimack River(2)Walden(3)A Plea for John Brown (an essay)2.point of view(1)He did not like the way a materialistic America was developing and wasvehemently outspoken on the point.(2)He hated the human injustice as represented by the slavery system.(3)Like Emerson, but more than him, Thoreau saw nature as a genuine restorative,healthy influence on man’s spiritual well-being.(4)He has faith in the inner virtue and inward, spiritual grace of man.(5)He was very critical of modern civilization.(6)“Simplicity…simplify!”(7)He was sorely disgusted with “the inundations of the dirty institutions of men’sodd-fellow society”.(8)He has calm trust in the future and his ardent belief in a new generation ofmen.Section 3 Late RomanticismI.Nathaniel Hawthorne1.works(1)Two collections of short stories: Twice-told Tales, Mosses from and OldManse(2)The Scarlet Letter(3)The House of the Seven Gables(4)The Marble Faun2.point of view(1)Evil is at the core of huma n life, “that blackness in Hawthorne”(2)Whenever there is sin, there is punishment. Sin or evil can be passed fromgeneration to generation (causality).(3)He is of the opinion that evil educates.(4)He has disgust in science.3.aesthetic ideas(1)He took a great interest in history and antiquity. To him these furnish thesoil on which his mind grows to fruition.(2)He was convinced that romance was the predestined form of Americannarrative.

It leaves much room forreaders to think by themselves.5.concerned with social and psychological problems, revealing the frustrations ofcharacters in an environment of sordidness and depravityIII.Three Giants in Realistic Period1.William Dean Howells –“Dean of American Realism”(1)Realistic principlesa.Realism is “fidelity to experience and probability of motive”.b.The aim is “talk of some ordinary traits of American life”.c.Man in his natural and unaffected dullness was the object of Howells’sfictional representation.d.Realism is by no means mere photographic pictures of externals but includesa cen tral concern with “motives” and psychological conflicts.e.He condemns novels of sentimentality and morbid self-sacrifice, and avoidssuch themes as illicit love.f.Authors should minimize plot and the artificial ordering of the sense ofsomething “desultory, unfinished, imperfect”.g.Characters should have solidity of specification and be real.h.Interpreting sympathetically the “common feelings of commonplace people”was best suited as a technique to express the spirit of America.i.He urged writers to winnow tradition and write in keeping with currenthumanitarian ideals.j.Truth is the highest beauty, but it includes the view that morality penetrates all things.k.With regard to literary criticism, Howells felt that the literary critic should not try to impose arbitrary or subjective evaluations on books but should follow the detached scientist in accurate description, interpretation, and classification.(2)Worksa.The Rise of Silas Laphamb.

IV.Theodore Dreiser1.life2.works(1)Sister Carrie(2)The trilogy: Financier, The Titan, The Stoic(3)Jennie Gerhardt(4)American Tragedy(5)The Genius3.point of view(1)He embraced social Darwinism – survival of the fittest. He learned to regardman as merely an animal driven by greed and lust in a struggle for existencein which only the “fittest”, the most ruthless, survive.(2)Life is predatory, a “game” of the lecherous and heartless, a jung le strugglein which man, being “a waif and an interloper in Nature”, a “wisp in thewind of social forces”, is a mere pawn in the general scheme of things, withno power whatever to assert his will.(3)No one is ethically free; everything is determined by a complex of internalchemisms and by the forces of social pressure.4.Sister Carrie(1)Plot(2)Analysis5.Style(1)Without good structure(2)Deficient characterization(3)Lack in imagination(4)Journalistic method(5)Techniques in paintingChapter 5 The Modern PeriodSection 1 The 1920sI.IntroductionThe 1920s is a flowering period of American literature.

BackgroundImagism was influenced by French symbolism, ancient Chinese poetry and Japanese literature “haiku”II. Development: three stages1.1908~1909: London, Hulme2.1912~1914: England -> America, Pound3.1914~1917: Amy LowellIII. What is an “image”?An image is defined by Pound as that which presents an intellectual and emotional complex in an instant of time, “a vortex or cluster of fused ideas” “endowed with energy”. The exact word must bring the effect of the object before the reader as it had presented itself to the poet’s mind at the time of writing.IV. Principles1.Direct treatment of the “thing”, whether subjective or objective;2.To use absolutely no word that does not contribute to the presentation;3.As regarding rhythm, to compose in the sequence of the musical phrase, not inthe sequence of a metronome.V. Significance1.It was a rebellion against the traditional poetics which failed to reflect the newlife of the new century.2.It offered a new way of writing which was valid not only for the Imagist poetsbut for modern poetry as a whole.3.The movement was a training school in which many great poets learned theirfirst lessons in the poetic art.4.It is this movement that helped to open the first pages of modern English andAmerican poetry.VI. Ezra Pound1.literary career2.works(1)Cathay(2)Cantos(3)Hugh Selwyn Mauberley3.point of view(1)Confident in Pound’s belief that the artist was morally and culturally thearbiter and the “saviour” of the race, he took it upon himself to purify the arts and became the prime mover of a few experimental movements, the aim of which was to dump the old into the dustbin and bring forth something new.(2)To him life was sordid personal crushing oppression, and culture producednothing but “intangible bondage”.(3)Pound sees in Chinese history and the doctrine of Confucius a source ofstrength and wisdom with which to counterpoint Western gloom and confusion.(4)He saw a chaotic world that wanted setting to rights, and a humanity,suffering from spiritual death and cosmic injustice, that needed saving. He was for the most part of his life trying to offer Confucian philosophy as the one faith which could help to save the West.4.style: very difficult to readPound’s early poems are fresh and lyrical. The Cantos can be notoriously difficult in some sections, but delightfully beautiful in others. Few have made serious study of the long poem; fewer, if anyone at all, have had the courage to declare that they have conquered Pound; and many seem to agree that theCantos is a monumental failure.5.ContributionHe has helped, through theory and practice, to chart out the course of modern poetry.6.The Cantos –“the intellectual diary since 1915”Features:(1)Language: intricate and obscure(2)Theme: complex subject matters(3)Form: no fixed framework, no central theme, no attention to poetic rules VII. T. S. Eliot1.works(1)poems●The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock●The Waste Land (epic)●Hollow Man●Ash Wednesday●Four Quarters(2)Plays●Murder in the Cathedral●Sweeney Agonistes●The Cocktail Party●The Confidential Clerk(3)Critical essays●The Sacred Wood●Essays on Style and Order●Elizabethan Essays●The Use of Poetry and The Use of Criticisms●After Strange Gods2.point of view(1)The modern society is futile and chaotic.(2)Only poets can create some order out of chaos.(3)The method to use is to compare the past and the present.3.Style(1)Fresh visual imagery, flexible tone and highly expressive rhythm(2)Difficult and disconnected images and symbols, quotations and allusions(3)Elliptical structures, strange juxtapositions, an absence of bridges4.The Waste Land: five parts(1)The Burial of the Dead(2)A Game of Chess(3)The Fire Sermon(4)Death by Water(5)What the Thunder SaidVIII. Robert Frost1.point of view(1)All his life, Frost was concerned with constructions through poetry. “amomentary stay against confusion”.(2)He understands the terror and tragedy in nature, but also its beauty.(3)Unlike the English romantic poets of 19th century, he didn’t believe that mancould find harmony with nature. He believed that serenity came fromworking, usually amid natural forces, which couldn’t be understood. Heregarded work as “significant toil”.2.works – poemsthe first: A Boy’s Willcollections: North of Boston, Mountain Interval (mature), New Hampshire3.style/features of his poems(1)Most of his poems took New England as setting, and the subjects werechosen from daily life of ordinary peopl e, such as “mending wall”, “pickingapples”.(2)He writes most often about landscape and people –the loneliness andpoverty of isolated farmers, beauty, terror and tragedy in nature. He alsodescribes some abnormal people, e.g. “deceptively simple”, “philoso phicalpoet”.(3)Although he was popular during 1920s, he didn’t experiment like othermodern poets. He used conventional forms, plain language, traditional metre,and wrote in a pastured tradition.IX. e. e. cummings“a juggler with syntax, grammar and diction” –individualism, “painter poet”Novels in the 1920sI. F. Scott Fitzgerald1.life – participant in 1920s2.works(1)This Side of Paradise(2)Flappers and Philosophers(3)The Beautiful and the Damned(4)The Great Gatsby(5)Tender is the Night(6)All the Sad Young Man(7)The Last Tycoon3.point of view(1)He expressed what the young people believed in the 1920s, the so-called“American Dream” is false in nature.(2)He had always been critical of the rich and tried to show the integrating effectsof money on the emotional make-up of his character. He found that wealth altered people’s characters, making them mean and distrusted. He thinks money brought only tragedy and remorse.(3)His novels follow a pattern: dream – lack of attraction – failure and despair.4.His ideas of “American Dream”It is false to most young people. Only those who were dishonest couldbecome rich.5.StyleFitzgerald was one of the great stylists in American literature. His prose issmooth, sensitive, and completely original in its diction and metaphors. Itssimplicity and gracefulness, its skill in manipulating the relation between the general and the specific reveal his consummate artistry.6.The Great GatsbyNarrative point of view – NickHe is related to everyone in the novel and is calm and detected observer whois never quick to make judgements.Selected omniscient point of viewII.Ernest Hemingway1.point of view (influenced by experience in war)(1)He felt that WWI had broken America’s culture and traditions, and separatedfrom its roots. He wrote about men and women who were isolated from tradition, frightened, sometimes ridiculous, trying to find their own way.(2)He condemned war as purposeless slaughter, but the attitude changed when hetook part in Spanish Civil War when he found that fascism was a cause worth fighting for.(3)He wrote about courage and cowardice in battlefield. He defined courage as“an instinctive movement towards or away from the centre of violence with self-preservation and self-respect, the mixed motive”. He also talked about the。

做一名坚定的无神论者医务人员英语作文
做一名坚定的无神论者医务人员英语作文Being a Staunch Atheist in Healthcare: A Personal Journey.Working in the healthcare industry exposes one to a myriad of experiences, perspectives, and beliefs. Among these, the topic of faith and spirituality often surfaces, presenting unique challenges and opportunities for healthcare professionals who identify as atheists.As a staunch atheist, I find myself navigating a healthcare system that is deeply intertwined with faith-based beliefs. While I respect the personal choices and beliefs of my patients, colleagues, and the community I serve, my own views on the existence of deities stand in stark contrast to the religious convictions held by many.In the realm of patient care, maintaining a professional demeanor while acknowledging my contrasting beliefs is paramount. I firmly believe that the provisionof medical care should be unbiased and devoid of personal religious inclinations. It is my duty to provide evidence-based treatment options and support without imposing my own worldview upon my patients.However, it is not always straightforward. I have encountered instances where patients have expressed a desire to pray with me or request spiritual guidance. While I am empathetic to their needs, I gently explain my stance as an atheist and offer to connect them with a chaplain or other spiritual care provider. This approach has generally been met with understanding and respect, fostering open and productive conversations.Beyond direct patient interactions, the healthcare environment can also present challenges for atheist providers. Religious symbolism, such as crosses or prayer rooms, may be prevalent in certain healthcare facilities. While I do not personally subscribe to these beliefs, I am mindful of the significance they hold for others and strive to create an inclusive and respectful workspace.One notable example occurred during a staff meeting where a colleague led a prayer before the meeting commenced.I respectfully declined to participate, expressing my appreciation for their inclusivity but reiterating my divergent beliefs. This moment sparked a thoughtful discussion about diversity and the need to create a welcoming environment for everyone, regardless of theirfaith or lack thereof.Furthermore, I am acutely aware of the potential for religious beliefs to influence medical decisions. While the vast majority of healthcare professionals prioritize evidence-based medicine, there may be instances where personal beliefs can cloud judgment. For example, some individuals may object to certain treatments based on religious prohibitions, even when medically necessary.In these situations, it is crucial for healthcare providers to engage in open and respectful dialogue, explaining the medical rationale and potential consequences of refusing treatment. It is also important to advocate for patients' rights while balancing their religious beliefswith their overall well-being.Navigating the healthcare system as an atheist has its unique set of complexities. Yet, it has also presented me with opportunities for personal growth and professional development. By embracing empathy, understanding, and unwavering commitment to evidence-based care, I strive to create a space where patients and colleagues feel respected and supported, regardless of their beliefs.The separation of personal beliefs from professional responsibilities is a fundamental principle of medical ethics. As atheist healthcare providers, we bear the responsibility of ensuring that all patients receive compassionate and unbiased care, while simultaneously upholding our own values and beliefs.Through open dialogue, respectful interactions, and a commitment to scientific reasoning, we can foster a healthcare environment that is both inclusive and evidence-based, where patients' well-being is paramount and the diversity of beliefs is celebrated.。

真假英雄的英语作文
真假英雄的英语作文Title: True and False Heroes。
Heroes are individuals who inspire us, who embody qualities of courage, selflessness, and integrity. However, in a world where appearances can be deceiving, distinguishing between true heroes and false heroes becomes crucial. Let us delve into this topic and explore the characteristics that define both.True heroes are those whose actions are driven by genuine altruism and a desire to make the world a better place. They often display acts of bravery, compassion, and sacrifice without seeking recognition or personal gain. Take, for example, the firefighters who risk their lives to save others from burning buildings, or the doctors and nurses who work tirelessly to heal the sick, often under challenging circumstances. These individuals demonstrate unwavering dedication to serving others, regardless of the risks involved.On the other hand, false heroes may initially appear heroic, but their motivations are often self-serving. They may seek fame, wealth, or power under the guise of altruism. For instance, some politicians may claim to champion noble causes but are driven by personal ambition rather than genuine concern for the welfare of society. Similarly, celebrities who engage in acts of philanthropy forpublicity or to improve their public image may not possess the selflessness inherent in true heroes.Another characteristic that sets true heroes apart is their consistency in behavior and values. True heroes demonstrate integrity and moral courage in both theirpublic and private lives. Their actions align with their principles, and they remain steadfast in the face of adversity. Conversely, false heroes may exhibit inconsistency or hypocrisy, espousing virtuous ideals publicly while engaging in unethical behavior behind closed doors.Moreover, true heroes often inspire others to follow intheir footsteps and make positive contributions to society. Their actions serve as a beacon of hope and encouragement, igniting a ripple effect of kindness and compassion. In contrast, false heroes may lead others astray, perpetuating harmful ideologies or setting poor examples through their actions.In evaluating the authenticity of heroes, it isessential to consider the impact of their actions on the greater good. True heroes leave a lasting legacy ofpositive change and inspire future generations to uphold similar values. Their influence transcends time and serves as a testament to the power of human goodness. False heroes, on the other hand, may leave behind a trail of disillusionment and disappointment, as their true motives are eventually exposed.In conclusion, true heroes embody the highest ideals of humanity, displaying courage, compassion, and selflessnessin their actions. They inspire us to strive for excellence and make a difference in the world. In contrast, false heroes may deceive us with superficial displays of heroism,but their motivations ultimately reveal their true nature. It is imperative to discern between the two and uphold the values exemplified by true heroes, for they are the guiding lights in a world often shrouded in darkness.。

初一巴斯克维尔的猎犬读后感英文
初一巴斯克维尔的猎犬读后感英文Title: Exploring the Depths of Fear - A reflection on "The Hound of the Baskervilles"Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Hound of the Baskervilles" is a timeless piece of literature that has captivated readers since its publication. As an adventurous tale steeped in mystery, it invites readers to delve into the eerie and unsettling world of the Baskerville family curse. Thisclassic story offers more than just a thrilling plot; it presents profound themes and concepts that resonate with audiences even today.One of the most striking aspects of the story is the masterful way in which Doyle weaves suspense and fear into the fabric of the narrative. The mere mention of the hound sends shivers down the spines of all who hear of its legend. The fearsome creature serves as a symbol for the unknown,representing the primal terrors that lurk in the shadows of human consciousness. Through the eyes of the protagonist, Dr. John Watson, we are introduced to a world where superstition and fact blend seamlessly, leaving us questioning what isreal and what is merely a product of our own fears.Dr. Watson's arrival at Baskerville Hall marks the beginning of a journey that will test his deductive abilities to their fullest extent. Accompanied by the enigmatic Mr. Sherlock Holmes, whose reputation precedes him, Watson finds himself embroiled in a complex web of lies, deceit, and danger. The dynamic between these two characters is particularly fascinating, as it showcases the sharp contrast between Holmes' intellectual prowess and Watson's more emotional approach to problem-solving. Their partnership proves to be essential in unraveling the truth behind the Baskerville curse.As the investigation deepens, we are presented with a cast of intriguing characters, each with their own motives and secrets. From the enigmatic Barrymore family to the elusive Stapleton, every person seems to have a piece of the puzzle that could either solve or further complicate the mystery. It is through these interactions that Doyle explores the theme of trust and its role in human relationships. Can one truly trust anyone when surrounded by such uncertainty?The setting of "The Hound of the Baskervilles" plays a crucial role in establishing the atmosphere of the story. The desolate moors, with their ominous mists and eerie sounds, serve as the perfect backdrop for the unfolding drama. They represent the isolation and vulnerability that the characters experience, both physically and emotionally. The harshness of the landscape mirrors the inner turmoil faced by the protagonists as they confront their own demons alongside the tangible threat of the hound.Furthermore, the novel delves into the psychology of fear and how it can manipulate individuals. The power of suggestion and the collective belief in the curse contribute significantly to the sense of dread permeating the story. Doyle's use of foreshadowing and suspenseful narration keeps the reader on edge, constantly anticipating the next twist in the plot.In terms of characterization, Doyle achieves a remarkable balance in developing his characters. Dr. Watson, with his genuine concern for the well-being of the Baskervilles and his companions, emerges as a sympathetic figure. Hisreliability and earnestness make him an ideal narrator, as we trust his judgment and perspective. On the other hand, Sherlock Holmes' brilliance is offset by his somewhat detached nature, creating a complex character whose methods may be questionable but whose results are indisputable.The climax of the story is where Doyle's mastery truly shines. The confrontation between good and evil, reason and superstition, is handled with such intensity that it leaves a lasting impact. The final reveal of the true nature of the hound and the resolution of the Baskerville curse provide a satisfying conclusion while also prompting deeper contemplation on the nature of belief and the lengths to which people will go when driven by fear.In retrospect, "The Hound of the Baskervilles" is not only a gripping tale of suspense but also a commentary on the human condition. It challenges our understanding of fear and its influence over human behavior. It questions the line between reality and myth, and it emphasizes the importance of critical thinking and rationality in a world where superstition can so easily take hold.Doyle's use of language and imagery is exceptional, painting vivid pictures in the reader's mind and eliciting astrong emotional response. His descriptions of the bleak moorland setting and the menacing hound create an atmosphere that is both haunting and captivating. The pacing of thestory is expertly crafted, with moments of high tension alternating with periods of calm, allowing for character development and plot progression.In conclusion, "The Hound of the Baskervilles" is a timeless exploration of fear, human nature, and the power of storytelling. It remains a benchmark for the mystery genre, showcasing Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's unparalleled ability to engage his audience through intricate plotlines,unforgettable characters, and a masterful command of suspense. This novella is a testament to the enduring appeal of a well-crafted narrative that continues to capture hearts and minds, generation after generation.Reading "The Hound of the Baskervilles" is not just an exercise in literary appreciation; it is an experience thattakes you on a journey through the darkest corners of the human psyche. It reminds us that sometimes, the greatest monsters we face are those born from our own fears, and that the key to overcoming them lies within our capacity for rational thought and bravery.。

Heroes often face daunting challenges and risks, yet they persevere in the face of adversity. Whether it's battling monsters, standing up to injustice, or confronting personal demons, heroes demonstrate an unwavering bravery that inspires others to overcome their own fears.

They adhere to a code of honor and principles that guide their actions, even in the face of temptation or adversity. This unwavering commitment to doing what is right distinguishes heroes from mere protagonists.
