The Morality of Greek Myths- Reflection #6


Apollo

In the skit that we did in class, I was Apollo. He is basically the messenger and comes in only in the part where Persephone gets kidnapped/forced to go with Hades. Hades falls in love with her but she hates him and doesn't want him to even touch her. She asks him, if she can go but he doesn't want her to leave and live with him. Apollo goes to Persephone's mother and tells her about what has happened and she gets emotional and starts crying. She thinks about what to and tells Apollo to go to Hades. Apollo goes there and tells Hades that Persephone has to go back (it was an order) and she cannot stay with him and everybody is really angry at him. Apollo takes Persephone and Hades want her to eat pomegranate with him and she agrees that she will go and do that and leaves as soon as she is done with the fruit. They leave and then, the people find Hades and hit him since they are taking out their anger at Hades. This is the part of the the story that my friends and i took part in. This is the end of the story but watching the skit was really a good moment of life and i think that doing skits leads us into learning things in an easier way and can remember it for a long time.
