Thanos Thanatos like Thanos in the Marvel movies wants. When he showed up on screen and I’m not a big Marvel fan, but when he showed up on screen, I was like, oh my gosh. And, you know, Thanos the gods Thanos in the last two Avengers movies. Now, if you hear that name Santos, and it sounds familiar to you. There’s kind of two different versions of this story. And Sisyphus tricks him into putting on the chains to demonstrate how they work, but because Hades is. Now in another version of this myth Hades is the one who is sent to go and get Sisyphus. Aries is actually the one who comes and frees Thanatos from these chains. Because nobody was dying in his battles. The funny thing is, is that the God that was the most angered by this is actually Ares. Now, during this time, no one died on earth because Thanatos was not there to go and get them. And specifically goes on his way and continues living his life. In reality, traps himself in these chains. So he demonstrates these chains for Sisyphus and. That supposedly make it so that no one can escape the chains once you’re chained up. He actually asked Thanatos to demonstrate these chains. And chain him and Tartarus as punishment. Thanatos to personally go and get Sisyphus. Another name or phrase for him as the grim Reaper. So, what basically happened is that Thanatos, who is Thanatos is the personification of death. So it’s kind of crazy that in ancient Greece, you can kill people in your own home, but if you tattletale on Zeus, then you’re in big trouble. So this is the, the event that like, Triggered Sisyphus and this and the myth of Sisyphus. And, you know, Nobody likes a tattletale, I guess, especially in ancient Greece. Sisyphus shared with him it was Zeus that was chasing after his daughter. Was chasing after an, a nymph named,Aegena. But while it angered Zeus, this wasn’t the thing that angered him the most. I hate to say the word sin, but it was a sin to the ancient Greeks. To kill someone in your own home was considered one of the greatest. And he even killed guests in his own palace, which angered Seuss. And I want to give students that background knowledge.
Who reads something about specifics in another novel or in a play? Or if they hear the phrase Sisyphean task, they immediately know what this is in reference to. And so with just a few phrases, a student. I try to always teach the myth of Sisyphus because he is often referenced in other literature. Or you might know the image of a man rolling a Boulder up a mountain only to have the Boulder come crashing down. Understand the reference, but they don’t actually know the myth. And this is a classic story in Greek mythology that I feel like most people. We’re going to be telling the story of Sisyphus.
