| Opis: | Everyone recognizes characters such as Luke Skywalker, Aragorn, Harry Potter or the heroes of numerous comics and films, such as Superman, Batman, and Spider-Man, but not everyone knows that the adventures, lives, and paths of these modern science-fiction and fantasy heroes were all largely inspired and influenced by ancient heroes from myths and legends, the heroes of Greco-Roman mythology or the famous British leader King Arthur.
In this thesis, the influences and similarities between modern science-fiction and fantasy heroes and the fantastic stories of the lives and deeds of these archetypal “ancient” heroes will be discussed. Is there a universal pattern? Can we find common characteristics between these heroes? How important are myths and ancient stories when creating a heroic character? These are just some of the questions that are explored. I will focus on Joseph Campbell’s notion of the “Monomyth” and his ideas of the “Hero’s Journey” or “Hero Cycle” as well as past and contemporary ideas on what it takes to be considered a “hero.” I also examine the works of Carl Gustav Jung and Northrop Frye and their views on archetypes.
My goal is to identify the connections between ancient and modern heroes by showing how ancient stories and legends influence modern authors and movie directors such as George Lucas, J.R.R. Tolkien, Bob Kane, Jerry Siegel and Stan Lee when creating their own heroic characters. |
