Original Instructions:
I need some ideas (preferably a detailed outline including a clear thesis and claims, if you can even provide specific examples or quotes in the book, that would be excellent) for my humanity essay. You don’t have to write the essay for me, I just need some ORIGINAL thoughts to start with. I also need you to be very familiar with the texts so I can ask some questions and make some changes.
Prompt: Oedipus and Prometheus both have complicated relationships with knowledge and truth. Oedipus is trying to gain knowledge while Prometheus has knowledge he seems unwilling to share, at least at times. Construct an argument that provides a clear claim on the responsibility to share or conceal knowledge.
The book includes: Greek Tragedies I – Prometheus Bound, Oedipus the King
Updates to Make:
Hi, firstly I may need more examples from each book and you should explain each claim with examples from each book. Also, it’s a comparison essay, so I need connections between the two characters . I’m sorry if I’m not clear, but the thesis should also be more specific and focus on whether to reveal or conceal knowledge. for the Oedipus part, I think you should focus on Oedipus himself finding the truth and knowledge but you can conclude one example of other character. And in the prompt it says “Prometheus has knowledge he seems unwilling to share” so it should be about Prometheus conceal the truth about something.
