Krista Thomas 7/10/11 Essay for Test 2 After a long history of man dominating women in this world’s society, we continue to see women taking a step behind the hero in many pop culture media. In Ancient Greek mythology, heroines were categorized into four main groups, with only one of them with characteristics as a successful leader. Being so, those women behind the curtains should receive the recognition they deserve. Whether they gave the moral support the hero needed to move forward or drew out the map for him to use, those men could not have done the job without the women’s help. One heroine in today’s pop culture that often get swept under the rug is Hermione Granger.
