Where should the quotation below be placed to further develop the paragraph?
a noted expert has written, “health and hygiene are still represented today by the rod of asclepius, a snake-entwined staff” (atkin 286)

1. asclepius, the greek god of medicine, was responsible for healing in ancient mythology. 2. his daughter, hygieia, was the goddess of health and cleanliness. 3. tradition states that asclepius angered hades, god of the underworld, by saving others from death. 4. hades asked zeus to use his mighty lightning bolt to stop asclepius

before sentence 1
before sentence 2
before sentence 3
before sentence 4

The question is giving us the following text: 1. Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine, was responsible for healing in ancient mythology. 2. His daughter, Hygieia, was the goddess of health and cleanliness. 3. Tradition states that Asclepius angered Hades, god of the underworld, by saving others from death. 4. Hades asked Zeus to use his mighty lightning bolt to stop Asclepius And we're supposed to instert the following phrase into it: A noted expert has written, “Health and hygiene are still represented today by the rod of Asclepius, a snake-entwined staff” (Atkin 286) and it's best to do it before sentence 2 . Look at the complete text: 1. Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine, was responsible for healing in ancient mythology. noted expert has written, “Health and hygiene are still represented today by the rod of Asclepius, a snake-entwined staff” (Atkin 286)2. His daughter, Hygieia, was the goddess of health and cleanliness. 3. Tradition states that Asclepius angered Hades, god of the underworld, by saving others from death. 4. Hades asked Zeus to use his mighty lightning bolt to stop Asclepius. It's best to insert this after sentence 1, because it's the only sentence truly about Asclepius - sentence 2 is about his daughter and sentences 3 and 4 are about Asclepius' connection to Hades

One really good example that I can think of off the top of my head is the narrator Nick from The Great Gatsby. One would think that because he is the narrator he should be good right? But he is not. He gets sucked into the world of Gatsby and it does not turn out well for anyone in the novel. Although at the end of the novel, Nick realizes that he needs to get away from that world because of what he has seen. It would be an awesome example for your essay. Hope that helps you get started. If you need any more help, let me know. I just finished studying the Great Gatsby and many many essay's on it, so I am here if you need any help :)
