I am going to talk about the notion of Myths and Heroes.

First of all I would like to give a definition of this notion. A myth can be defined as a story about gods or heroes, it can be a popular belief or a tradition or a false notion. A hero can be a mythological figure, a person who is admired for his or her achievements, a superhero or maybe a role model or an icon.

This year in class we studied several documents about the notion of myths and heroes. and in order to illustrate this notion, I have to decide to treat the subject of the standardization of automobiles by H.Ford who allowed to positively change the life of people, so according to the definition, he became a form of heroe.

Indeed, there are a lot of American symbols like us flag, road 66, Hollywood stars who represent thé DNA of america. It’s what makes the country special and unique. The car promoted travels all these symbols. This video conveys the message that America is the best, and especially when it comes to manufacturing cars.

Whats more, we saw a painting named « gas » of Edward Hopper from after the first world war . The painting is set at sundown. We discern a road separates the forest from the gas station who represents the civilisation. This two elements oppose. Step by step, the automobile is overwhelming and controle the life of people and they become alienated as consequence, we can think that Ford is an anti-heroe and change the life only to attract world and alienated poeple.
