Hero's Journey Essay Prompt
Write a essay on the hero's journey. Using Campbell's The Hero With a Thousand Faces as a guide (as well as all of the other learning we've accomplished and resources we've gathered), teach your reader about the hero's journey.
Teach your reader about the following things:
What, according to Campbell, is the hero's journey?
What is its overall structure, and what are its sub-stages?
Help your reader understand the stages by citing examples from your favorite films, books, games, or from your own life.
Be sure and utilize all three lenses when appropriate: the literal, the psychological, and the spiritual or philosophical lens, when discussing the stages.
Finally, regarding that third lens (the spiritual or philosophical lens), what is the pedagogical power of the hero's journey? What can any of us learn from applying the wisdom of these hero stories to our own lives?
