Working on a paper on Tricksters and Heroes using Prometheus as my topic.

 

I have to compare two myth variations.

Compare the two cultural variations of the myths presented, including the similarities and differences. Support your comparison with evidence from the primary sources. 

Demonstrate how one theory of archetypes (Jung's theory, dispersion theory, etc.) might account for the spread and evolution of the myths. 

Demonstrate how a different theory of archetypes (Jung's theory, dispersion theory, etc.) might also account for the spread and evolution of the myths. 

Discuss the significance of each myth to its corresponding culture. Support your discussion with specific examples. 

Analyze the purposes of the myths according to at least two different functions for each myth. Functions to consider include metaphysical, cosmological, pedagogical, sociological, psychological, and aetiological.
