    Following the Departure stage, the six step Initiation stage begins with the road of trials, or the test stage. This step is often the most lengthy, as it is the hero’s entire journey. The road of trials consists of all the obstacles and events that the hero experienced and overcame to develop necessary characteristics to become a true hero (Bray). These events, similar to the belly of the whale, all aid in the transformation of the hero, as each event teaches the hero a valuable lesson.

  • The Hero's Journey: The Idea Of A Hero

    244 Words  | 1 Pages

    From Greek mythology to 21st century TV shows, the idea of what a hero is has changed. The antagonist was always patronized for his wrong doings and mishaps, the protagonist was always favored and rooted for during his journey, and the audience was always eager to find out what was going to happen next. The “hero’s journey” was consistently the traditional, saccharine, orthodox concept of the good guy embarking on a new adventure, with an objective that s/he must reach, while overcoming obstacles in order to transform her/him. Surprisingly, that all changed when we began to empathize with the bad guy during his journey. Those bad guys are not only in TV shows but also are in reality represented as celebrities.

    In Joseph Campbell’s book The Hero with a Thousand Faces, he writes about the many different stages of the hero’s journey. He claims that the hero’s journey, or the monomyth, has existed as a guideline for authors and storytellers for centuries. The authors of these stories may have consciously utilized the monomyth, or the stories may be so commonly used that it became the natural way of telling a story about a hero. The monomyth is organized into three different phases: the initiation, separation, and return. Within these phases are the different encounters the hero has.
