Past and Modern Day Stories

authors note: this is about how people take a person from a old text and make it into a modern text


Zeus in the older text he was more tense and feared by people. Also in the older text, Zeus sounds more powerful over everyone and everything. But in the modern rendition he is a poof off and seems like the low baller. He thinks he can do anything, but always gets shut down at the last second. He uses a cell phone instead of ancient stuff to talk to people. Also Zeus isn't really a leader in the modern story like in classical stories about Zeus, where he is a very big leader.

The changes make it more fun for the reader or actor. It is also funny and in a way brings out the smart, dumb, and dumber of the people we live with in today world. We also have the gossip people and the hyper and active people of today.  It also makes it feel like today's world. Like who some people who act like Mr. know it all's and the people that get girls, but can stand up for themselves.
