22. The Hero’s Journey is a RECURRING STORYLINE, or pattern of narrative, identified by the American scholar Joseph Campbell that appears in drama, storytelling, myth, & religious ritual around the world. It describes the typical adventure of the archetype known as The Hero, the person who goes out and achieves great deeds on behalf of the group, tribe, or civilization.

23. Motif:
Things we expect to see
Reoccurring imagery, language, structure, or contrasts
Theme is abstract and motif is concrete
Obvious to the reader

26. 1. THE ORDINARY WORLD. The hero, uneasy, uncomfortable or unaware, is introduced sympathetically so the audience can identify with the situation or dilemma. The hero is shown against a background of environment, heredity, and personal history. Some kind of polarity in the hero’s life is pulling in different directions and causing stress.
2. THE CALL TO ADVENTURE. Something shakes up the situation, either from external pressures or from something rising up from deep within, so the hero must face the beginnings of change.
3. REFUSAL OF THE CALL. The hero feels the fear of the unknown and tries to turn away from the adventure, however briefly. Alternately, another character may express the uncertainty and danger ahead.

27. 4. MEETING WITH THE MENTOR
4. MEETING WITH THE MENTOR. The hero comes across a seasoned traveler of the worlds who gives him or her training, equipment, or advice that will help on the journey. Or the hero reaches within to a source of courage and wisdom. 5. CROSSING THE THRESHOLD. At the end of Act One, the hero commits to leaving the Ordinary World and entering a new region or condition with unfamiliar rules and values. 6. TESTS, ALLIES AND ENEMIES. The hero is tested and sorts out allegiances in the Special World.

28. 7. APPROACH. The hero and newfound allies prepare for the major challenge in the Special world. 8. THE ORDEAL. Near the middle of the story, the hero enters a central space in the Special World and confronts death or faces his or her greatest fear. Out of the moment of death comes a new life. 9. THE REWARD. The hero takes possession of the treasure won by facing death. There may be celebration, but there is also danger of losing the treasure again.

29. 10. THE ROAD BACK. About three-fourths of the way through the story, the hero is driven to complete the adventure, leaving the Special World to be sure the treasure is brought home. Often a chase scene signals the urgency and danger of the mission. 11. THE RESURRECTION. At the climax, the hero is severely tested once more on the threshold of home. He or she is purified by a last sacrifice, another moment of death and rebirth, but on a higher and more complete level. By the hero’s action, the polarities that were in conflict at the beginning are finally resolved. 12. RETURN WITH THE ELIXIR. The hero returns home or continues the journey, bearing some element of the treasure that has the power to transform the world as the hero has been transformed.

31. EPIC Expectations
Things we can expect to see in future epics - long narrative poems that relate the great deeds a a larger-than-life hero who embodies the values of a particular society

32. EPIC Expectations
Repetition to benefit oral delivery - audiences did not read
ex. page 25, paragraph 1
Imagery / metaphor to “paint a picture” for an audience that had no tv, movies, etc. (page 26 - top of page)
Characters represent values of society that wrote journey story
Bravery -  “I am G…” page 27
Fraternity - page 26
Allow modern readers glimpes into the past
View of afterlife (page 24)

33. EPIC Expectations
Similarities to other journey/hero stories - remember: Gilgamesh is the original model
Ferryman - journey to “other side” - Odyssey, Dante
Upnapishtim & the tradition of flood stories...remind you of anyone?
Snake as the “bad guy” - where have we seen this before?
Theme / Lesson or human truth to be shared
Carpe Diem - Latin for “Seize the Day”
