ARCHETYPES

Definition: An archetype refers to an image, story-pattern, or character type that recurs frequently and evokes strong, often unconscious, associations in the reader.

The term comes from psychologist Karl Jung’s idea of recurring patterns of situations, characters, or symbols existing universally and instinctively in the collective unconscious of man.

Jung believed the basic foundation of the collective unconscious is the archetype, a universal theme/symbol/situation that runs constant in the minds of mankind.

The archetype is an unconscious pattern that has developed throughout the ages. The archetype influences the way people think, as they repeatedly use the same ideas as previous generations, only in different surroundings and different situations.

Example: THE LION KING The Hero: Simba The Mentor: Rafiki Loyal Retainers: Timone and Pumba, Zazoo Devil Figure: Scar and the hyenas The Quest: a journey to restore fertility to a wasteland Archetypal settings: wastelands, wilderness Symbols: fire and rain, the lion Archetypal Colors: green (envy), red (fire, passion)
