Differences between heroes include antiheroes and heroes. Anti-heroes and heroes like Walter White, Macbeth, and Beowulf have similarities and differences with the actions they decide to take to develop their hero characters. The perception of what a hero truly is could also be very broad to understand. An antihero is defined by Dictionary.reference.com as "a protagonist who lacks the attributes that make a figure heroic, such as nobility of mind and spirit, a life or attitude marked by action or purpose, and the like ” How a person perceives an antihero depends on what the character does and how he does it. Walter White, for example, experiences difficulties within his family that lead him to take decisive actions for the general benefit of family, while affecting the lives of others. Walter in episode 6, season 4 states: “You clearly don't know who you're talking to, so let me give you a clue. I'm not in danger, Skyler (his wife). danger. A boy opens the door and gets shot, and you think this of me? NO! This way of thinking and acting for the benefit of his family has not only killed people, but is also considered in Walters as the right way to do things, should he be the one to “knock” and do the dirty deeds in the end, he would, which is why Macbeth is also classified and considered an anti-hero. Macbeth based on his beliefs and actions can actually be considered an anti-hero and this is made clear when he committed the murder of King Duncan. Macbeth has taken matters into his own hands to hasten a process that would ultimately benefit him and goes on to say, “I enter and it is done. The bell invites me. Don't listen to him, Duncan, because it's... some paper... they have to face the extreme of having to risk their life, they still see what a person, a soldier, a hero is capable of to be recognized as a hero . Many societies admire heroes, but having something like a soldier who influences the meaning of a hero in a positive way, who is a “role model” in himself to the American people is truly admirable as it unites people and motivates potential. heroes through the fact that they see what a hero can be and what he already is today. To conclude, heroes and antiheroes have their own unique attributes but have similarities that define what a true hero could and should be in whatever society a hero needed to be defined. The variety of opinions based on what a hero is is comprehensive, but each individual should define a true hero uniquely as circumstances are almost always different.
