WEB PROJECT-Text Critique Essay

First of all, myths shows the culture of an specific place. In addition, there are different kind of myths and some of them let see to us the changed beliefs. furthermore, you can notice a difference among the North America, South America , Asian and Europe myths or legends. So, this is a way to learn about the different cultures that have been in the world. Besides, it is a way to understand how an specific culture has been growing up. Northamerican's myths are so important because all we know that this culture is too powerful and then, from the myths we could learn some things that why this culture is what it is today.

The first myths were , principally, based on universal principles or to explain the beginnig of the earth and some of those things. That's why the old myths used to explain some changes in the nature and human behavior with animals , gods, spirits and other things. Moreover, if you take a look from some of the myths from North America, you will find that they had a great believe and were so respectful to anything that the nature gave.

Nowadays, the concept that all we have of a myth is more associated with urban myths, because these myths try to be more related with the reality. even more, that change is because of science. Most of the old one myths were belied by the scientific method and that's is why some of us believe in new things that science can not prove if it is true or false. however, there are ancients myths that we still believe. In addition, here in colombia there are myths that were taken from North America culture, and that's why we're so influenced by these people.

To sum up, myths like cultures have been changing and that's because of science advances. Nonetheless, there are people that still believe in some old myths. In fact, myths from North america have changed , some people from North America don't appreciate about their old native myths because some of them are bored and only are intersted on the contemporary myths that actually are urban myths.Furthermore, Colombia are taking the same thought from North America.

PROJECT WORK- Articles Critique- Blair Witch.

First of all, I issued in my own page an article about the blair witch myth. this is about a northamerica myth, exactly a myth from Maryland. And this myth says that "in 1785, a woman accused of witchcraft is banish from the village of blair, Maryland, and a year later, her accusers and half of Blair's children vanish.The town of Burkittsville is established at the site of the abandoned village about forty years later, and over the next one hundred and fifthy years a series of child murders and mutilations takes place. in 1994, three students decide to travel to Burkittsville to film interviews with local about the Blair witch legend as a class project, and a couple of days later they disappear in nearby woods. No trace of them is found until the footage they shot is discovered under an cold cabin a year later"1. Furthermore, this is the film that everybody saw in the cinema. Despite this is scary, this is a fake, because some scientists discovered that the murders was because of an hermit that killed seven children around 1940-1941 but the newspaper hide this because want that the myth of the Blair witch won't disappear. Moreover, the journalists did the same with the three students that supposedly were lost in the woods, and died. The film only was created by a director to take the attraction from the people and sell it. So, Blair witch project is only a lie.

To conclude, here we can see how the myths are created to take human beings minds trapped in an entertaining game and that is why people doesn't like to belie some tales and try to persevere the myths. In summary, this show to us a part of the north america culture that believe a lot in paranormal things.

PROJECT WORK-Articles Critique.

Celtic Numbers Mythology

This is one of the article that one of my classmate did and it's about an europe myth. this is about how some numbers for the celtics had their importance. the article explains that all these numbers have a particular meaning and are associated with some places, things that are in the nature or some values. Additionally, in the article are considered only five numbers that are three, seventeen, five, twenty-seven and thirty-three. In addition, I will give a brief definition of each other.for example, three was a sacred number in ancient Celtic mythology and religion. Secondly,Five signified the family unit and order in Irish tradition, because of the five provinces of Ireland, and also the five laws imposed on provincial Irish kings. Seventeen was a number associated with the cycles of the visible moon, particularly the new moon. Twenty-seven represented the sacred number nine tripled three times, which supposedly triples its potency.Finally, Thirty-three represented the royal or judicary number, signifying great honor.

In my opinion, this is a very intersting myth about the european culture and that is because the celtics was one of the firsts cultures that was in the old continent. moreover, here we can find an explanation of some changes that happen in the nature and know the thought of that ancient culture. however, I think that the article left behind some things like, for instance, the importance that thirty-one had for the celtic culture because here is where the halloween started. also, this was one of the most important feast for the celtic culture.
