  • How Diana's relationship with her mother and Amazonian sisters shapes her to become a leader and the heroine called Wonder Woman
  • The ways differences in culture and gender can contribute to alienation but also to personal empowerment
  • What roles emotion, strengths, virtues, and culture shock play in heroic behavior
