Are heroes always fictional?.This year in class, we studied a film called ‘The Dark knight’. It is a film that is focused on the performance of an hero. I had a curiosity of whether the hero actors shown in the film actually perform the qualities of heroism in real life. Therefore, I decided to do a research based on Princess Diana, to see whether she demonstrated the qualities of a real-life hero. I decided to investigate what impact did Princess Diana have on the world. I will also investigate three questions of what influenced Princess Diana to help society?,how have her achievements been recognised? and what are some of her achievements?.

According to the book 20th-century personalities, Princess Diana said,” When I go abroad we’ve got 60 to 90 photographers, just from this country. so let's use it in a productive way.”Princess Diana made a good use of the media by attracting worldwide to issues/causes and help to raise awareness. Throughout the years, Princess Diana has gained many achievements for her contribution to society. One of the achievements Princess Diana gained was her success in making the world, society a better place for lots of people around the world. According to the book Tribute to people’s princess Diana, Princess Diana supported many causes /issues and charity projects. Princess Diana was a patron over 100 charities such as charity for Homeless, Sick Children's, Leprosy Missions, National AIDS Trust and many more. Princess Diana was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her work on landmines in 1997.She was involved in a campaign against landmines which brought international attention and According to the website buzzle.com Princess Diana was also listed as being amongst the list of 100 most important people belonging to the 20th century by the TIME magazine in the year 1999. In addition, she was also named 3rd in the list of 100 greatest Britishers. Princess Diana was most famously known for her work with AIDS charities and raising awareness about using dangerous landmines.One thing that really brought people's attention to her AIDS work was her physical touching of the patients she visited. According to the HIV aware organisation, Princess Diana was one of the first high-profile celebrities to be seen publically touching AIDS patients, including holding their hands, hugs, pats on the back and encouraging them. Although Princess Diana hasn't gained many awards or prizes but I feel that Princess Diana may not need them as I think they could be replaced with
Cyrus Beene & Diana Prince “The nitty-gritty, morally bankrupt, back-alley-brawling rest of the game, that’s me. It’s filthy and thankless, and it’s my hallelujah, heroin, and reason to breath”- Cyrus Beene. Cyrus Beene is a political mastermind in the hit television series known as Scandal. He is an impeccable example of attaining Machiavellian virtues due to his unending strive for more power and the decisions he makes when given the opportunity to achieve more power.
In present time, however, rules have changed. Heroes don’t have to be knights protecting their kingdom anymore. They can be activists, entertainers, authors, entrepreneurs, etc. It doesn’t matter their career, if they were to incorporate helping others it can show a great deal of heroism. Beowulf and Maya Angelou are both examples of heroes.
After this incident, she was receiving phone calls from people threatening her, and they said to be from the Ku Klux Klan. While she was involved with the Civil right movement another thing that she made a bid impact on was World War II. She worked for the French Resistance. She was able to do this by collecting information about German troop locations and many other important information from others she met at parties. One of her special qualities was charming people, while still gathering information.
In 1997, the bening yet lascivious Diana, Princess of Wales passed. Rumors have ubiquitously outspread, amongst them some ludicrous others conforming to reality and holding some degree of validity. A tripartite of the conspiracies- each with its respective way of knowing, that possess substantial merit with evidence that is conducive to the canonicity of the conspiracy will be analysed scrupulously. We recognize that there might be biased behavior in this investigation with regards to the treatment of the more inane conspiracies but will make an attempt to objectively consider the evidence, context, and content of the event.
One of her major accomplishments is that The Catholic Worker Movement spread to many other cities and more than 30 other affiliated communities (“We’re Inspired by Dorothy Day,” Who Was Dorothy Day?- Dorothy’s Place). She had also attended protests in favor of women’s suffrage which led to many arrests that followed her activism (“Dorothy Day,” National Women’s Hall of Fame). Dorothy Day sadly passed away on November 29, 1980. However, her legacy lives on each and every day. Through her writing and legacy, she taught people how to live the works of mercy.
The best examples of heroes may come from fictional stories but real life heroic traits often come from those fictional heroes. Some of these traits seem godlike but there are humans that hold heroic traits beyond what we can read about. Beowulf is a fictional character with superhuman strength that is fighting to save a group of people from multiple atrocious creatures. Harriet Tubman, on the other hand, is an African American slave who escaped from her master and ran an underground railroad to bring slaves to freedom. Although Beowulf is a fictional character and Harriet Tubman is not, they are both perceived as heroes that shared selflessness and leadership skills they used to accomplish their ultimate goals; saving peoples lives.

“Diana and Actaeon;” The Similarities and Differences between the Original Ovidian Episode and Titian’s Painting When one mentions the story of “Diana and Actaeon,” one’s mind most commonly recalls the transition story in Ovid’s Metamorphoses, where Actaeon accidentally stumbles upon the goddess Diana naked in the woods while on a hunting trip, and she metamorphoses him into a deer, therefore his hunting dogs devour him (Ovid 55).
