Tried this last night no help so this is my last shot. 2000 word term paper due in 12 hours. I want to compare Beowulf and Hector from The Iliad. I need 3 body paragraphs.

I chose to compare them based on the greek notion of arete (bringing virtue to perfection) by:

1- compare both as leaders
2- compare key battles
3-compare deaths

My thesis was that Beowulf more so exemplifies arete than Hector.

Prof said she likes the idea of comparing them but with the ways I chose they seem too similar. Can yall help me set up 3 body paragraphs? The thesis also needs to be arguable.

I don't even know what that is but fuck no.

Why is love, or divine love, so important in Dante's Purgatorio? You have bad, too little, and immoderate love, you have God representing Divine Love, but why is it all about love? Is love a motivator for people to reach paradise or something?

I want to get either one of these.

1. A book all about the life and works of leonardo da vinci. I find him extremely interesting so if anyone know any good books like that please share.

2. A modern day fantasy that's not a series. Just one book.

I browsed the wiki and didn't see anything.

So I reread The Count of Monte Cristo and holy hell I enjoyed it. It was a required book in like 9th grade and I didn't like it. Just started college and decided to read it again.

Anyone else done this?
Also what do you think of The Count of Monte Cristo?

Also I'm fairly certain I saw some poster in demotivational form about the the book that listed all the shit Edmond did to get revenge. Anybody have that?
