1 Motif: Mythic Ancestor So what? : Achieving individuality ?That night, my mythic ancestor returned after a lengthy absence. But he was less thunderous than he has ever been before and did not wake me from my sleep? (Potok 297). This quote symbolizes Asher?s guilt taking the form of his mythic ancestor. When Asher feels ridden with guilt, his mythic ancestor appears in his dreams in a barbaric and ?thunderous? way. As shown in the quote, his ancestor starts mollifying after a long ?absence?. After relieving his pressures into art, his ?mythic ancestor? has a more untroubled personality. Only at times when Asher is willing to accept himself is his mythic ancestor more understanding.

The Judgment of Paris Eris= the goddess of Discord. She was disliked and excluded by the other gods. King Peleus and Thetis (a sea nymph) were getting married, and Eris wasn’t invited. So Eris rolled an apple marked “For the Fairest” into the banquet hall. Zeus wouldn’t chose between Aphrodite, Hera, and Athena- he told them to go to Mount Ida and to let Paris (a.k.a. Alexander) decide. Paris was living with Oenone, a nymph, and working as a shepherd because his father Priam had heard that Paris was to destroy Troy. In exchange for the apple, Hera offered Paris Europe and Asia. Athena offered Paris a Trojan victory over the Greeks. Aphrodite offered Paris the fairest woman in the world. Aphrodite got the apple, and the Trojan War began.
