This play revolves about a hero who undergoes suffering even without the main character himself knowing why. Pretending if Eddie was to be alive for his second life, which of these options would he believe of his character to reflect on: a hero or a villain? Clearly, acknowledging that heroes have always been committed to his profession in the name of justice, he would prefer himself as a hero. Without doubt he would’ve positioned himself as a hard-working man for he had “worked like a dog for twenty years”, classifying it as a good deed served for the people (that is to be his wife and the niece) to fight the villain (the impoverished life condition). Not only that, he would’ve thought that generosity characterized his genes likewise the hero who rescues the citizens without paybacks, otherwise why would he accept to add a burden on his shoulder to feed one more person in his house.
He was a kid once. George Washington is the pinnacle of what a person can and should be. “Happiness and moral duty are inseparably connected.” George Washington believed that to be happy, you did not so much need things, as you needed to be all that you could be, and do it in a way that helps others. “I walk on untrodden ground. There is scarcely any part of my conduct which may not hereafter be drawn into precedent.” George Washington was not afraid to take a leap of faith, to step in the dark, confident all the while.
Unlike a Protagonist, there is only one Hero, A hero is generally defined as a person who displays great courage in the face of danger and is willing to sacrifice himself for the greater good. In this novel neither one really fits the description of 'Hero', Arthur doesn't sacrifice much for George, and George is already in a very bad position so doesn't really have much to sacrifice. In this novel the hero would have to be chosen by the person that did the most heroic act. By this definition we can conclude that Arthur is the hero as he helped George get out of his misery and back on his feet. George also helped Arthur through Touie's death, We also have more sympathy towards George as he is from a poor family, he is constantly victimized due to his skin colour and myopia.

This is a very pure profession of his loyalty. I know I would not let somebody go chopping away at my head if it was not for a good reason, Gawain’s Loyalty and obligation to the throne was reason enough for him. Sir Gawain, though an honorable man, who possess great characteristics such as loyalty, an honorable code and an above par chivalry code. Since I see courage as an action rather than a characteristic, Gawain never makes that action. I also do not confuse his loyalty and obligation for an act of commitment.
From the beginning of the poem he describes this man as a common poor boy just like every young man who no one ever hears about, he leaves his home and goes out into the world scared and surrounded by strangers.

His life has through struggles, and he will still be a fighter that will continue to work and triumph.
Loyalty, Courage, and Honor “Heroes are normal people that never give up and never regret doing what they believe is right.” –George What separate actual heroes from those supernatural people are their actions and intentions?
