Part A

Let us examine Heros and how they function in our lives.

I. After viewing the video, 'What makes a hero,' do all of the religious episodes mentioned follow the pattern of the hero's journey? Find a comparable story from last week. Does it follow the hero's journey pattern?

II. Is the hero's journey formula so flexible that it can be applied to any story with a main character and a beginning-middle-end story arc? Try to identify a successful book or movie that defies the hero's journey pattern. Consider how that story could be modified to conform to the hero's journey.

III. What do ordinary people have in common with heroes? Why do you believe people look to heroes? Especially those like Sir Gawain, Maui, and Mwindo?

IV. Do you think that the Iliad follows Joseph Campbell's heroic monomyth theory? Why or why not?
