Abstract: |
This thesis is an analysis of Aeneas from Virgil's first-century epic, the Aeneid, and Guan Yu from the sixteenth-century Chinese historical novel, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, respectively. For each hero I discuss his martial skill, compare him to another character in his story, examine his virtues and flaws, and analyze a particular episode that highlights these qualities. By looking at these two different heroes from such disparate cultures and examining what they have in common and what makes them different, we can learn much about the larger concept of the hero. |
