who is wonder woman
Paper instructions:
We have been looking at the ideas and symbols that Wonder Woman stands for, both for her and for
society. She represents an idea of justice, honor and truth and yet she is willing to give all that up to be
human. Circe on the other hand, is willing to take all that that Wonder Woman seems to want to negate,
take it and do something with it. In fact she accuses Wonder Woman of not doing her job and not being
who she is supposed to be.
For this essay you are going to look at both Wonder Woman and Circe and write a compare and
contrast essay.
Wonder Woman is supposed to be the representation of justice and the protector for women all
around the world. Circe argues that she is not, and takes away her powers. Who do you think is a better
protector of women around the world? Why?
