Part A: Scavenger Hunt – Hero, Trickster & The Other
Identify three characters from film, literature, art, television, video games etc., that you think is a good representation of
a hero
a trickster
the other
Embed a picture of each into your post
Then, for each image, write a one-sentence caption that lists three adjectives that describe the character in terms of the archetype they represent.
Hero or Trickster
FIRST – identify and briefly summarize the story of a hero or heroine or the story of a trickster. You may use examples from this week’s Required Learning Materials or find examples outside of the course readings. Be sure to use a reliable resource for your myth and cite it in MLA style in your post
SECONDLY – explain how this character’s story aligns with the heroic monomyth or displays characteristics of the trickster. Use the resources from this week’s Required Learning Resources on the heroic monomyth and the trickster to demonstrate this.
The Heroic Monomyth
The Hero Archetype & the Self
A Guide for Studying Tricksters
FINALLY – explain what qualities, values, beliefs, norms or practices (types of nonmaterial culture) you think someone could learn from the hero or trickster story you choose. Why?
