He inspired readers, including presidents and congressmen, to help preserve nature so we can still enjoy its beauty today. I want to be like John Muir someday. I want to be a man who will make a difference in our modern world. I want to be a man who will stand up to protect what he believes in. Muir reminds me of another man who made a difference to the science world, Charles Darwin.
Receiving a vaccine trains your body to fight off a disease. Similarly, training America’s youth to handle difficult situations can prevent future problematic situations. The second part of Benjamin Franklin’s quote says, “Wise and good men are in my opinion, the strength of the state; more so than riches or arms.” This quote references the quality of men that are in a country, and how a single man can make a greater difference than any amount of riches or arms. Riches and arms are only temporary things, but a good man has a more lasting impact. One of the greatest examples of a “good man” is Martin Luther King Jr. which is a name recognized throughout the world.
Leslie Maghett ENG 1101 Synthesis 2 Henry David Thoreau, a philosopher was drawn to the doctrine of transcendentalism. In his essay “From Walking,” he wrote about the oneness of individual spirit along with man’s obligation to pursue worldwide truth. Thoreau presents a step by step meaning of the effectiveness of the wilderness and nature. John Lame Deer, a medicine man, was in agreement with Throeau. In “Talking to the Owls and Butterflies,” Lame Deer chronicles his attitude towards the “white world’s,” treatment of animals and nature.
Also, Deerslayer exemplifies this mentality by always doing the morally best things for society as a whole. Deerslayer greatly compares to “a seed scattered by the wayside”, just like the early Americans, contributes as a major catalyst in him transforming into the ideal American Hero. He begins his life living with a religious order called the Monrovians, who taught him his moral values before the corruption of the city. Next, he lives with Indians in nature, which shows him how to act strong and survive in the world giving him toughness. Deerslayer starts out just like the Early Americans lost in nature, though just like the great Rousseauian philosophy that nature is good and similar to the Early Americans Deerslayer goes from a lost soul to finding his niche in society.

“Nature” is an accurate illustration of the views that the transcendentalists had on the natural world. By immersing himself in nature, he says that he is given a new sense of clarity, divinity, and enlightenment that cannot be gained anywhere but in nature. He was a strong believer that finding oneself and exploring one’s own soul is the ultimate pursuit of happiness, that the ultimate fulfillment in life would be self-discovery. Henry David Thoreau, Emerson’s short-time housemate, held very similar ideas, and found the works of his friend inspirational. Thoreau’s essay, “Civil Disobedience”, describes his idea of rebellion against laws he felt were unnecessary or unjust.
Why? This is due to the theory of the nature of man. The nature of man is what every person in the world seeks for, because it is in our “nature.” We all search for a warm shelter, food, love, lust. In Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, Gawain prayed for food and shelter on his journey to find the Green Knight, and when he looked up, there was Bertilak’s castle. He resisted the temptation of the Lord’s lady’s lust, but because he is still human, he could not push away the occasional greed that any person feels now and then, and kept the green girdle all to himself.
The fact that not all thanes could be as courageous and have so many heroic achievements for their countries and rulers is why Beowulf seems so ideal and extraordinary. Beowulf's many achievements told throughout the story gives him the appearance of the most faithful of thanes, who has climbed the social ladder not because he has meant to do so, but because he wishes to protect his country and others and give all the credit to its rulers. This sort of behavior gives him a kind and generous nature that can be traced to a kind of chivalry. Chivalry can also be considered a very important role in the creation of a thane's reputation and popularity. Through Beowulf's chivalry, generosity, friendship, and popularity, all of his kingdom and of others knew him for his heroism and loyalty.
He showed true leadership, he taught, and believed in God. Kamehameha wanted to make Hawai’I a better island, and so he did. He started trade and commerce with other countries, while at the same time keeping his people satisfied. He traded sandalwood and other goods. He also had so much respect from the people of Hawai’I.
Beowulf Values The story of Beowulf holds many interesting values about each character. The characters value their fathers names, their armor and treasures. These values are clearly shown throughout the story and affect the plot dramatically . Beowulf truly cares about his father Edgetho and his appearance in his armor because of how he presents himself when meeting new people stating his father's name right away, and treasures because he lost his life for a treasure. The value of a man's fathers name is very important to the men in this time period.
