Alexandra BrackenA modern alternative to SparkNotes and CliffsNotes, SuperSummary offers high-quality Study Guides with detailed chapter summaries and analysis of major themes, characters, and more. For select classroom titles, we also provide Teaching Guides with discussion and quiz questions to prompt student engagement.
Athena believes the fates are in control, while Lore argues the power of free will. To what extent does fate control the characters’ lives? In what parts of the narrative does a character break from expectations and make their own choice? In what circumstances do choices and twists lead to a predetermined outcome? Consider these points as you build your ideas.
Teaching Suggestion: Examining the definitions of fate and free will before the larger discussion might help students more fully access this complex question. It could be beneficial to participate in a philosophical line as an introductory or concluding activity for this discussion. One end of the philosophical line represents the fates and the other end of this continuum represents free will. After being presented a scene from the novel, students determine the extent to which that scene represents fate or free will.
