Heroism
Although it might be difficult, I think I am going to do
Catwoman as my character. I believe that she can be considered a hero with many
different physical and mental characteristics that she holds. Catwoman began
with a very tragic childhood and ventured onto take care of her. With these
rough circumstances Catwoman was then turning to crime and wrong doing which
started her days in the spotlight of action. Batman then saved her from this
wrongdoing and that is where she then became the infamous Catwoman. Sometimes
she is alongside Batman fighting against others but then other times she could
be partaking in things that would lessen her characteristics of a hero. With
these contrasts, I think this is why it is hard to determine whether she is a
hero or villain.
I believe that she is a hero. It was hard for me to come to
a conclusion of what I thought she was because of the many uncertain things she
partakes in. She represents a grey area in the eyes of a viewer when it comes
to heroism and villainy. She became along side Batman when he saved her from
continuous crime and his instant attraction was that she was almost like the
girl version of him. He also didn’t know what to think of her stature; whether
it is a hero or villain. When I think of
heroism I define it as a very abstract term. In our world there are so many
different views of heroism and what someone with those certain characteristics
would entail. I think I would define it in close regards to Bernstein’s definition.
A hero is a person that carries certain powerful and higher-reigning
characteristics that are used to protect others and is trained to fight in the
face of danger.
