Consider Amster-dom, who outstands and is considered as one of the greatest athelets in the world not only because his championship in the France de tour , but also because of his fortitide and inspiring spirit in face of the life-threatening disease. Does Amsterdom best present what American society is ? Certainly not. In a not dissimilar way, athelets or sports teams are tend to be chosen as a society's heroes, especially during crucial worldwide sports competions,say World Cup. Admittedly, they are regarded as the society's most brilliant figures after they achieved great history.

The third trait is that he must be basically noble in nature. This can be applied to Ethan because of the noble qualities that he shows throughout the novel. He always acts gentlemanly towards Mattie, and is quite kind to the author of the novel despite his bitterness. Unfortunately, despite his mostly noble nature, Ethan does have a tragic flaw that ultimately leads to his demise: naivety. Ethan gets so caught up in his romance with Mattie that he makes a very poor decision.

And when you love, God’s light shines on you”, “happiness is only real when shared” and “you’re wrong if you think the joy of life comes principally from human relationships”.

Othello and Desdemona, as portrayed in the play, are the two greatest of innocent people there ever was. The two appear to love one another romantically and genuinely at first, but this idealistic love becomes more of a profane love, or perhaps that was truly the case all along. This occurs because there is no foundation for a relationship here; there is no communication, no understanding, and no trust. Othello has spent most of his life in battle, which makes him excellent at several things-- specifically combat. Othello says, “Rude am I in my speech, and little bless’d with the soft phrase of peace;/ for since these arms of mine had seven years’ pith,/ Till now some nine moons wasted, they have us’d/ Their dearest action in the tented field;/ And little of this great world can I speak/ More than pertains to feats of broils and battle” (Kennedy, 786).
The Princess Bride An epic hero is generally a male of noble birth who reflects important ideals of his society and performs courageous-sometimes even superhuman-deeds. This type of hero takes place in settings that often involves more than one nation, where he would determine the fate of that nation or group of people. This is contrary to what a romantic hero is, which is on who goes on adventures from which he seeks meaning, may be defeated, but will survive his shame, and one who has a sense of duty to be conquered. Rob Reiner’s, The Princess Bride, uses the characteristics of a romantic hero to prove that true love never fades. Westley was just a farm boy for Buttercup when they fell in love.

To have such awe inspiring powers so as to gain the trust and respect of your men to the extent that they would indeed take greater pleasure in their deaths than that of their leaders is truly incredible. This is the recognition point for the reader in which he or she can truly tell that Beowulf was a true hero to many people. Not only had Beowulf become a figure of fame in his life, but he had obtained the ultimate honor: Beowulf had become a legend, and, in that, Beowulf would forever continue to be a hero and to demonstrate his talent for generations to come as he had successfully saved his people, the Geats and the
