Part a. Did Augustus manifest the ideals and flaws of the Romans or the Greeks? You can see that this may be presented as a response to a colleague or as a stand-alone post.
Part b. Some scholars suggest that our heroes and monsters reflect our norms and those boundaries that scare us or that make us uncomfortable. For example, you might say that zombies reflect our anxiety regarding the boundary between life and death. Choose one hero or monster from our popular culture and not actual people. These can be drawn from our own childhood stories, myths, movies, comics literature that you read in school or elsewhere, etc. By weighing historical evidence and using the chart, explain whether that hero or monster seems to reflect Greek or Roman values most. So you will be offering two evidenced opinions – one on Augustus and one on the representation of a monster from stories told/filmed in our times. Why? Please see post below on one of the most influential forces in the world, Romanization. To what extent are we still Romanized or Hellenized? Please answer all questions
