Are Greek gods and heroes nothing more than oversized or glorified humans, or have they attained a level of existence of such superiority that no mortal human could possibly reach it? Are they SUPERHUMAN? As you write, consider whether this type of sensibility is unique to the ancient Greeks and, in particular, differs from our own; or whether the similarities between ancient and modern culture ought to be taken more into account than the differences. Use specific evidence from any sources you can, including those we have studied in class and also those from outside of class that you can draw from your own experience.
