7421625The Gorgons Headhttps://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-gorgons-head-9789370870000/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/7014949/image.jpg?v=6387870349765000001818MXNZinc ReadInStock/Ebooks/<p>The story follows the character of Perseus, the hero who is tasked with slaying Medusa, the Gorgon, whose gaze turns people to stone. With the help of magical gifts from the godssuch as a reflective shield, winged sandals, and a swordPerseus successfully confronts Medusa and decapitates her. However, in Hawthornes version, the emphasis is less on the heros triumph and more on the symbolic nature of the Gorgons head. When Perseus shows the head to others, it turns out that the head represents not just physical danger but also the petrifying effects of pride and arrogance, both in individuals and society.Hawthorne uses the myth to reflect on the dangers of self-centeredness and the potential for inner transformation. The Gorgons head, in the end, becomes a metaphor for the way in which human beings can be hardened by their flaws and fears. The story is a commentary on how vanity and moral corruption can "petrify" the soul. As with much of Hawthornes work, The Gorgons Head combines mythological elements with deep psychological and ethical reflections.</p>...7051834The Gorgons Head1818https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-gorgons-head-9789370870000/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/7014949/image.jpg?v=638787034976500000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20259789370870000_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_<p>The story follows the character of Perseus, the hero who is tasked with slaying Medusa, the Gorgon, whose gaze turns people to stone.
