Bonjour, j'aimerais si possible des avis et/ou des corrections. Je pense notamment qu'il y a des formulations maladroites :/, que ce soit sur la forme ou le fond. Merci d'avance.
A myth is a popular belief, whose the part of truth is variable, a hero is someone that is admired for his act, his courage or his determination in the defence of the good, these two notions are strongly lied, and a hero is part of the myth, or more, the hero can be the base of the myth. But further than the definition. These notions have an important impact on our society, now and by the past. They have greatly contributed in the construction of the national identity, and by the way in the construction of the nation or in the state policy. For illustrate this we will study the role, the utilisation and the evolution of myth and heroes in American society, for that we will talk of the American dream who are one of the founder myth of the USA and of the 11th September, who have greatly impacted the American society.
Because of there importance, myth and heroes was the subject of many manipulation. This is for a part the case of the American dream, but of course, the greater myth, and the most famous heroes had to have a part of reality in it.
In the history, the numerous migrants have seen within them the apparition of “self made men” who, with nothing, had built greatest empire of the world and make more and more attractive the USA. Henry Ford can be considered for one of these powerful men, but as we has see in class in a text who have for purpose to present the career and the problem that Henry Ford have known, the figure of Henry Ford and his action can be subject at discussion. By his imagination in the organisation of the production, he had produced for low cost many cars, like the famous Ford T. But the most clever is that the workers of the factory had enough wages for bought the car. But behind this, Ford want mostly had a flexible manpower, ready to accept the dehumanised work chain because of good salary, and who will not think of her conditions: for this point Henry Ford choose only workers who didn't read and think too much, who had a proper life. As we can see a large part of the Ford's story had been prettify, but in the same time, the fact show how the standard of living of the workers had been increase.
But far of these discussable heroes and myth, the American society claims less political and more human heroes, like the fire-fighter of the 11th September. We have study a work who showed in a heroic posture the fireman who had courageously brave the fire of the tower, fallen because of the terrorist attack. These men correspond of qualities promoted because they symbolize the union of the American People during and after the attack. Indeed They had brave the danger, They had die or risked the death for protect the liberty to live in peace of the American civil population, what is another pillar of the American identity. But we have also to say that the picture represent only WASP despite of the pluriethnicity of United States, representative of a conservator point of view, using one more time myth and heroes for promote an ideological vision.
As we have see, myth and heroes have in common to be major in all spiritual, mental construction. But because of that, they have to suffer of personal and national passion, who make evolved the reality, sometimes for discriminate something, other time for elevate another things. It's why we have to aboard these myth and heroes with a necessary recoil. For sort out fact from fiction.

Désolée mais personne ne peut reprendre toutes vos erreurs dues sans doute à l'usage d'un traducteur en ligne.

Bonjour,
on sent trop le texte français traduit à tout prix,soit en mot-à-mot, soit au traducteur (cf aborder les mythes = aboard these mythes, mais aboard, c'est être à bord d'un bateau, ) ce qui a souvent peu de sens.
ex: Ces deux notions sont intimement liées = these two notions are strongly lied mais to lie, c'est mentir, pas lier. Vous inventez des verbes?,
soignez vos temps, vos participes passés après have,
pour + verbe se dit to + base verbale; I come to work: je viens pour travailler
donc , pas de "
