Rejection, Freedom and Understanding

Rejection, Freedom and Understanding.

Why does The Council of Scholars reject Prometheus' gift: his invention of the light? Does their rejection help Prometheus understand and free himself from his collectivist society? Explain your answer.

The council rejecting Prometheus' re-invention of the light only led to positive things for him. One positive thing for Prometheus was that he was able to understand how wrong his collectivist society was.

He now could speak freely and express his feeling how he always wished he could. He now could have his own ego, personality, and be able to love.

Prometheus realized that he needed to free himself from this collectivist society. Prometheus learned that he no longer could be held back by his society. He was far too intelligent for a group of people to tell him that he was wrong in making light. Prometheus needed a place to call his own. Every person in his society was a mindless drone and they only held Prometheus back. Prometheus needed a place to live and speak freely. When he found the home with all the books and modern things it was perfect for Prometheus. He had now found his home.
