Elements of the Epic Hero Cycle (from http://edsitement.neh.gov)
The main character is a hero, who is often possessed of supernatural abilities or qualities.
The hero is charged with a quest. The hero is tested, often to prove the worthiness of himself and his quest. The presence of numerous mythical beings, magical and helpful animals,
and human helpers and companions. The hero’s travels take him to a supernatural world, often one that
normal human beings are barred from entering. The cycle must reach a low point where the hero nearly gives up his
quest or appears defeated. A resurrection. Restitution. Often this takes the form of the hero regaining his rightful
place on the throne.

Are heroes “archetypes”?
A common understanding of a type of person, character
Crosses cultural lines The epitome of a hero, a monster, etc.
An archetype is merely a defining example of a personality type. The "mother figure" can be considered an
archetype and instances can be found in various female characters with distinct (non-generic) personalities.
![Page 23: The Hero’s Journey Freshman Honors English Coronado High School Edited for non-honors by Letty Burr](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022032612/56649ee55503460f94bf4d61/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
What is an archetype? Archetypes have been present in folklore
and literature for thousands of years and appear to be present in prehistoric artwork.
The use of archetypes to analyze personality was advanced by Carl Jung early in the 20th century.
The value in using archetypal characters in fiction derives from the fact that a large group of people are able to unconsciously recognize the archetype, and thus the motivations, behind the character's behavior.

Quest: This is the hero quest, which the archetypal character sets out on. The hero may not realize he is on such a quest until it is too late to retreat.
