Discuss the Characteristics of the Mythical Quest What is a quest? A hero goes on a quest to help his community rid itself of some evil or to regain something stolen from his community.

THE STRUCTURE OF THE QUEST (MONOMYTH) FROM Joseph Campbell’s Hero with a Thousand Faces.

The Myth of THESEUS AND JASON The myth ofJ ason– detailed lesson plans in clear folder. Go to mythweb.com- heroes-Jason and read it. Go over the characteristics of a myth and chart these characteristics in myth ofTheseus aaabut use INSPIRATION to analyze Jason. Read myth of Jason in Edith Hamilton. What is different? Watch the video? What is different? What was the reward in each version?

Meaning of the chart: Please tell them the meaning each point and have them try to determine it from the story. Then tell them. I put individual charts on google aps for them to fill in. I corrected the things I forgot on the paper version. They can complete the chart on google aps. They may not get this done today

Read Jason and then Chart Fate: Does the hero have a fate- a destiny? What is it? Call to adventure: The hero is either forced to go on a quest, tricked into going or volunteers to go. They aren’y indicating they understand this.

Helper – gods and goddesses help. Versions of myth change the helpers.

ON THE CHART I FORGOT TO PUT TESTED. Please them ad that. Tested – the hero to prove himself worthy to go on a quest may have to answer a riddle, do a physical fete or do some kind of test.

Amulets – lucky charms or special weapons. These are given to him usually by the gods or helpers to help him in his quest. Crosses the Threshold of adventure – This is when the hero leaves his familiar land and goes into a foreign land. Often there is a guard that won’t allow the hero to enter. This is often where the hero is tested.

Helpers past the threshold – give him directions, advice, or Nadir – this is where the hero encounters what he is after. It might be guarded and so he must fight to attain it.

Boon – I forgot to put it on the chart too- Grrrr-. The boon is the reason for the quest. Return or Flight – Now the hero must get back home with the boon to use it to cure the evil at home. Sometimes he does and sometimes he doesn’t. If he obeys the gods, they will favor him. If he doesn’t, they can destroy him. He must return any amulets he was given by the gods.

Elixir – the boon now becomes the cure for the evil that causes the hero to go on a quest. Reward – (on the back of the page) This is what the hero receives once he returns from the quest. He may be made king or be given a woman as his wife. He can also become a constellation of stars in the sky.(Perseus is given the hand of Andromeda. He does not become king but he will have mighty sons). They didn’t get this right
