Power Point By: DeAnna Milligan Anthem Power Point By: DeAnna Milligan
Headline I think that the important theme of Anthem is that it is not okay to be like everyone else, sometimes you have to rebel against the rules of the world in order to find happiness.
Step Inside I chose to step inside the world of Prometheus (a.k.a. Equality 7-2521). I think Prometheus cares deeply about Gaea (a.k.a. Liberty 5-3000), because they ran away together and started a family. I think Prometheus wonders about how things work in the world, like how he wonders how you can produce light without heat.
Connections I think that I would connect with Gaea because I think that, if I had to, I would run away and leave everything that I had behind just so that I could be with the one person that I truly loved.
Level 2 Question Question- Why did Prometheus run away? Answer- To save his discovery and to find freedom.

Quotes “I stand here on the summit of the mountain. I lift my head and I spread my arms. This, my body and spirit, this is the end of the quest. I wished to know the meaning of things. I am the meaning. I wished to find a warrant for being. I need no warrant for being, and no word of sanction upon my being. I am the warrant and the sanction.” “I am neither foe nor friend to my brothers, but such as each of them shall deserve me. And to earn my love, my brothers must do more than to have been born. I do not grant my love without reason, nor to any chance passer-by who may wish to claim it. I honor men with my love. But honor is a thing to be earned.” “I guard my treasures: my thought, my will, my freedom. And the greatest of these is freedom.”
Inferences I think that the author wants me to think that Prometheus is loyal, outgoing, and not afraid to take risks even if he has to leave his whole life behind him. It says in the book that Prometheus decides to show the World Council of Scholars his discovery after he escapes the Palace of Corrective Detention, even though that means he might get himself into deep trouble. He even runs away just to save his discovery and leaves everything behind him.
