  1. Bellwork • Take one of each sheet from the table. • We’ll discuss the sheets shortly. • In your journal, define a hero.

  2. Hero Archetype The Hero—This archetype is so well defined that the life of the protagonist can be clearly divided into a series of well-marked adventures that strongly suggest a ritualistic pattern. Traditionally, the hero’s mother is a virgin, the circumstances of this conception are unusual, and at birth some attempt is made to kill him. He is, however, spirited away and reared by foster parents. We know almost nothing of his childhood, but upon reaching manhood, he returns to his future kingdom. After a victory over the king or a wild beast, he marries a princess, becomes king, reigns uneventfully, but may later lose favor with the gods. He is then driven from the city after which he meets a mysterious death, often at the top of a hill. His body is not buried, but nevertheless, he has one of more holy sepulchers. Characters who exemplify this archetype to a greater or lesser extent are Oedipus, Theseus Romulus, Perseus, Jason, Dionysus, Joseph, Moses, Elijah, Jesus Christ, Siegfried, Arthur, Robin Hood, Beowulf, and Frodo.

  3. Hero Archetype The hero’s archetypal journey can be comprised of these stages: Ordinary world in the beginning Call to adventure Reluctance or refusal of the call Mentors Crossing the first threshold Test, enemies Allies Approaching the inmost cave Supreme ordeal Reward Road back Resurrection Return with the elixir
