The Hero's Journey

Only when you think a little deeper  about your character do you notice the pattern of  the Monomyth: The Hero's Journey, created by Joseph Campbell. So many characters  across a multitude of genres go through the stages of the 'The Hero's Journey' - Can you spot this pattern in the books you've read? - Once you identify the pattern, you can better interpret  your character's behavior. +1 if you can add a comment with a title of a book where this 'journey' is used. - You cannot name anything that was discussed in class.


"The cave you free to enter holds the treasure you seek."  Joseph Campbell

Win +1 points if you can recognize this pattern in the characters you read about going forward.
