Rutledge, Mary E. (Mary Elizabeth). "The Monomythic Journey of the Feminine Hero in the Novels of Anita Brookner." Thesis, University of North Texas, 1996. https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc278679/.
Full textAbstract:
Joseph Campbell, in The Hero with a Thousand Faces, establishes a pattern for the hero to answer the call to adventure, ask the question of the goddess and receive her boon, and return to his homeland. Campbell does not, however, make any suggestions about a myth whose protagonist is female. Erich Neumann, in The Origins and History of Consciousness, hints that the woman may, indeed, be her own goddess, that she must give herself the boon she already carries. The novels of Anita Brookner illustrate the dual nature of the feminine protagonist: the seeker and the boon giver. The feminine hero (even when Brookner's protagonist is masculine, he exhibits feminine qualities) hears the call to adventure, receives the teachings of the goddess and/or her representative, receives help fromother beings (in myth these would be supernatural beings), realizes that she carries the answer to the cosmic question of selfhood within her, and, following an apotheosis, makes a return to society. Much of the present work is spent delving into both the monomythic and feminist structures of Brookner's novels. Although Brookner characterizes herself as a "reluctant feminist," examination of her novels reveals a subtle adherence to feminist principles which can be ascertained by viewing each novel in terms of the monomyth schema.

Previous issue date: 2018-04-13<br>Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo desenvolver e analisar uma estratégia de ampliação do
repertório literário de alunos do 7o ano do Ensino Fundamental de uma escola pública
estadual de Juiz de Fora: a criação de uma comunidade de leitores em sala de aula
através da leitura compartilhada de uma obra de referência para os alunos – no caso a
Bíblia, mais especificamente narrativas relacionadas aos Heróis Moisés e Jesus –
usando como chave de leitura a Jornada do Herói, a qual permitiria estabelecer uma
relação intertextual entre a obra já conhecida e uma rede de novas obras pertencentes a
sistemas diferentes do polissistema literário. A hipótese era a de que a leitura das
histórias dos Heróis bíblicos Moisés e Jesus permitiria aos alunos expandirem seu
repertório através da apropriação de estratégias literárias mobilizadas pela Jornada do
Herói, presentes tanto nessas histórias quanto nas histórias dos Heróis gregos e do Herói
celta Rei Arthur. Além disso, tinha-se a intenção de verificar se era possível promover
uma ativação do repertório recém-adquirido numa leitura de partes da série
contemporânea Harry Potter que levasse em consideração o intenso diálogo intertextual
que ela mantém com as narrativas tradicionais. Os pressupostos teóricos que embasaram
esta pesquisa foram: repertório literário (Iser, 1996),comunidade de leitores (Chartier,
1994), Jornada do Herói (Campbell, 1997) e polissistema literário (Zohar, 2013). Além
disso, foi adotada a estratégia de leitura compartilhada (Colomer, 2007). A metodologia
usada foi a pesquisa-ação e, como instrumentos de coleta de dados, foram usados
questionários diagnósticos, diário de campo do professor e diário de leitura dos alunos.
A partir da leitura compartilhada das obras anteriormente mencionadas, conseguimos
construir uma comunidade de leitores partindo da Bíblia para outras obras
intertextualmente relacionadas. Os alunos conseguiram estabelecer relações entre as
histórias lidas tendo como referência a Jornada do Herói elaborada por Campbell.<br>This research aims to test a strategy to expand the literary repertoire of students of the
7th grade of Elementary School in a public school in Juiz de Fora: the creation of a
community of readers in the classroom through shared reading of a reference work for
students - in this case the Bible, more specifically narratives related to the heroes Moses
and Jesus - using as a key reading the Hero's Journey, which will establish an
intertextual relationship between the already known work and a network of new works
belonging to systems different from the literary polysystem. The hypothesisis that
reading the stories of the biblical heroes Moses and Jesus will allow students to expand
their repertoire by appropriating literary strategies mobilized by the Hero's Journey,
both in these stories and in the stories of the Greek heroes and the Celtic hero King
Arthur . In addition, it is intended to check if it is possible to promote a newly acquired
repertoire activation in a reading of parts of the contemporary Harry Potter series that
takes in to account the intense intertextual dialogue it maintains with traditional
narratives. The theoretical assumptions underlying this research were: literary repertoire
(Iser, 1996), community of readers (Chartier, 1994), Hero's Journey (Campbell, 1997)
and literary polysystem (Zohar, 2013). In addition, the shared reading strategy was
adopted (Colomer, 2007). The methodology use disaction research and the instruments
of data collection are diagnostic questionnaires, teacher's field diary and student reading
diary. From the shared reading of the works mentioned above, we were able to build a
community of readers from the Bible to other intertextually related works. The students
were able to establish relationships between the stories read with reference to the Hero's
Journey elaborated by Campbell.

Full textAbstract:
My ongoing series of assemblages are an expression my modern mythology through the juxtaposition of esoteric symbols and my collection of beloved action figures. Though myth is founded in partial truths and allegories, it has the unique capability to speak about our relationships to one another and the universe. My artwork conceives of anime, comics, and videos games as part of our contemporary mythology.
Inspired by a fusion of pop culture and spirituality, I also draw on the magical properties attributed to flowers, gemstones and other materials to create shrines, altars, and other objects. Juxtaposing these properties, found in my research of esotericism and mythology, with action figures establishes symbolic connections that act as an interface to the spiritual symbolism explored in each piece.
The collision of masking tape, shoe polish, flowers; gemstones and repurposed objects result in re-contextualizations of characters from popular culture. My practice suggests new possibilities for cultural symbolism reflective of my own unique experiences and values and as an active expression of creative freedom in our experiences of the divine. My assemblages re-examine traditional categorizations in art and culture, such as sacred and profane and high and low, while attempting to demystify the veil that separates the experiential from the transcendent.

Adams, Trevor W. "A black hero's journey." Thesis, Anglia Ruskin University, 2014. http://arro.anglia.ac.uk/583105/.
Full textAbstract:
There is a dearth of Black male education success stories and a lack of documenting by some pastoral practitioners of their model of pastoral care. The absence of both my story and model was due to traumatic memories. As a Black male pastor and educator, seen as a role model, working to inspire Black young males disaffected in their education, the absence blocked my practice advancement. Therefore, I used this problem for a self-reflective study on my practice to put my record straight. First I revisited a snapshot of my educational past and contemporary practice using a Black metaphorical redemptive lens to see my study as a Black hero’s journey. Second, I imagined myself through a Johari Awareness Model in reflective conversation with myself, Jesus Christ, and others. Third, I located my work within a practical theological paradigm and used autoethnographic methodological approach and methods to gather and analyse my data. Finally, I subjected my findings to a discussion interpreted through my conceptual lens to see what would emerge. Hidden insights underpinning my practice were surfaced providing me with a new view of my life and way of being in my practice. Captured in the form of my autoethnography, this serves as a new Black cultural symbolic resource. This gives documented access to my education success story. It also models my pastoral practice which now enables me to share with others, through symbolic modelling, the current best knowledge and practices underpinning my work. My study is an innovative use of inner experiences for Black professional advancement from blocked traumatic memories. It provides a new model within the field of practical theology, by which others might see a theology by heart beyond the usage of text for professional development. My inquiry makes me more transparent and a better role model for student and colleagues.

Full textAbstract:
This study explores the archetypes, motifs, and stages of the Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey as they are found in the Moldvay revision of the rules to Basic Dungeons & Dragons, that emerge from playing the game using the seven adventure modules printed for these rules. Using narratological concepts, the definition of what makes narrative is expanded to include the narrative that emerges by playing story-based roleplaying games like Dungeons & Dragons. These narratives, based on the seven adventure modules, are the analyzed using Campbell's monomyth as an interpretive tool, showing that these types of narratives are up to similar academic scrutiny as other forms of narrative. Such scrutiny shows that the types of narrative that emerge from playing a tabletop roleplaying game like Dungeons & Dragons need an expansion of the models for narrative analysis. This expansion presents a myriad of opportunities for future study.

Full textAbstract:
<p>This dissertation investigated the lived experience of transformation of participants in an earth-based Hero’s Journey Program and how a transformation manifests in participants’ daily lives. Three conceptual frameworks were investigated: Transformative Learning Theory, Joseph Campbell’s Hero’s Journey, and Scharmer’s U Theory. This study utilized a triangulation of multiple forms of qualitative inquiry including researcher experience in conjunction with data collected and analyzed in 3 phases that informed and validated each other. A total of 36 participants (<i>N</i> = 36) were involved in this study; participants included myself, facilitators, and journeyers. Phase 1 was a focus group (<i>n</i> = 5). Phase 2 was an interpretive phenomenological analysis of interviews (<i>n</i> = 16); and Phase 3 was an exploratory survey (<i>n</i> = 15). Phase 2 and Phase 3 ran concurrently after the completion of Phase 1. Two participants were involved in more than 1 phase of the study; therefore, the total number of participants is less than the combined number of participants listed for each of the 3 phases. Research found full-embodied spiritual journeys in a time concentrated mythological orientation steeped in nature’s elements foster human development and leadership capacities. Transformative process emerged six themes: (a) deep longing for clarity, likeminded community, connection to nature; (b) embracing the unknown, rituals create symbolic connections to soul, spirit and a sense of not being alone. Ritualized intentions embodied within nature create a catalyst for transformation; (c) willingness to tolerate discomfort reveals five interconnections: presencing, overcoming fear, trusting, surrendering and mutual support. Crossing thresholds evokes increased energy, a felt sense of spaciousness, reclaimed parts of self and an energetic unity of <i>being</i> (feminine) and <i>doing</i> (masculine). Reflective dialogue significantly enhance a transformation; (d) transformation shifts relationships with self, others, nature and time; (e) facilitators’ provide safety, unconditional acceptance, compassionate inquiry and profound sense of presence; and (f) an interwoven leadership atmosphere augments individual development and leadership capacities. </p>

Full textAbstract:
Little is known about the importance of courage in serious mental illness. The purpose of this study was to discover whether courage was a significant variable in clients struggling with mental illness. The phenomelological approach and research method was used and the question was asked: What is the essential structure of the lived experience of courage in serious mental illness. Five seriously mentally ill adults participated in an open ended, recorded interview, recounting their experience of courage. Phenomenological analysis was used to derive 69 theme clusters and 13 categories. An essential structure of courage was drawn from the clusters and categories. The 13 categories fell so naturally into the stages of Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey that the stages were incorporated into category headings. In this study courage played a significant role in the ability of the participants to live successfully with serious mental illness.

Full textAbstract:
This essay investigates the applicability of Joseph Campbell’s notion of the Hero’s Journey from his theoretical work The Hero with a Thousand Faces on J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit, or, There and Back Again. This has been done by outlining the essential aspects of Campbell’s theory and then performing a reading and analysis of Tolkien’s work. Furthermore, this essay focuses on the narrative structure proposed by Campbell, but also the heroic character’s development—in this instance, Bilbo Baggins’ development. As such, a brief examination of Campbell’s attitude and use of Freudian psychoanalysis has been performed as well as a presentation of Bilbo Baggins’ character and dual nature before the adventure. As a possible line of argument Tolkien’s knowledge of myth is also briefly expounded on. This essay does not research or make any definitive statements on the universal applicability of Campbell’s theory, but merely finds that Tolkien’s The Hobbit, or, There and Back Again appears to conform well to Campbell’s proposed narrative structure and that the development of Bilbo’s heroic character, or his character arc, is in concurrence with this as well.

Theoretically, research on this phenomenon has been particularly fruitful as it is situated at the nexus of entrepreneurship and social value creation, which has opened up ample avenues for novel explorations. This thesis builds on the entrepreneurship and social entrepreneurship literatures by providing insight into the role of social entrepreneurs’ indirect discursive practices and direct entrepreneurial actions to address societal challenges. Drawing on theoretical concepts from the literature on social movements, crowdfunding, and social identity, the different chapters of this thesis examine the motivational framing tactics of social enterprises, the cognitive and emotional appeals in entrepreneurial narratives in prosocial settings, and the interaction between social identity and entrepreneurial action in the case of marginalized communities. In this thesis, qualitative and quantitative methodologies are employed to empirically investigate these indirect practices and direct actions of social entrepreneurs and their ventures. This thesis further develops our knowledge about the social entrepreneurship field by specifically focusing on the approaches to address societal challenges through motivational framing, cognitive and emotional appeals, and insider social entrepreneurship and, therewith, aims to make both a theoretical and practical contribution.

McCoin, Charles. "If You Can Dream It, You Can Do It: Walt Disney’s Hero’s Journey to Professional Identity." Digital Commons @ East Tennessee State University, 2021. https://dc.etsu.edu/etd/3882.
Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this multi-method single-case study was to examine the application of Joseph Campbell's Heroic Journey model as a means of professional identity creation in the life of Walt Disney.
Walt Disney was an entrepreneur, cartoonist, filmmaker, inventor, studio head, and family man whose career stretched through the first half of the 20th century. Walt used his imagination and creativity to establish industry norms in the animation, film, television, and amusement park industries. Walt Disney's legacy and vision continue to be a viable influence within the Walt Disney Company today.
Campbell's Heroic Journey model was used as the theoretical framework for this study. The Heroic Journey model is rooted in folklore but is used as a means of personal self-discovery and self-construction (Murray, 2009). In the model, Campbell (2008) suggested that the world's myths were not a series of differing myths but one myth, the monomyth, played out differently across cultures. The monomyth is broken into three parts (separation, initiation, and return), with 17 stages dispersed across the parts.
The Heroic Journey model states that all heroes leave their familiar world, progress through trials, and return home with new learning for change. This framework was applied to Walt Disney's life to look at the narrative influence on his professional identity. The expansion of narrative scholarship and its influence on creating personal and professional identity using historical research, document review, and observational data was the purpose of this qualitative study.
The Heroic Journey model acts as a lens to create and discover one's identity by using stories as a vehicle of understanding. All of life's experiences must be viewed as narrative experiences to use the Heroic Journey model.
This study found that narrative cannot be separated from the human experience. It is one's life and lived experiences that create the story of their existence through separation, initiation, and return. Every experience from one's birth to death contributes to whom they will become both personally and professionally. By looking at life as a series of stories and narratives, one realizes the depth of their identity through reflection and examination.

Mais especificamente, pretende estabelecer uma comparação entre as trajetórias dos futebolistas Garrincha e Pelé, retratadas nas referidas obras, e a estrutura da Jornada do Herói de Joseph Campbell, um dos mais renomados estudiosos da mitologia universal. As reflexões propostas visam analisar a possibilidade de enquadramento do atleta no âmbito do mito, o que se dá pela verificação da passagem dos protagonistas pelo núcleo Separação–Iniciação–Retorno do monomito, percurso padrão da aventura mitológica do herói, uma figura predestinada a superar desafios e a realizar feitos grandiosos.<br>In the face of the media's attribution to sports idols, giving them mythological aspects that transform them into heroes, courageous enough figures to enter the world of adventure, overcome challenges and win gifts in favor of society, the present study aims to analyze the narratives present in the documentaries "Garrincha, hero of the Jungle" (1963, directed by Joaquim Pedro de Andrade) and "This is Pelé" (1974, directed by Luiz Carlos Barreto and Eduardo Escorel). More specifically, it intends to compare the trajectories of the soccer players Garrincha and Pelé, portrayed in the mentioned works, and the structure of the Hero’s Journey of Joseph Campbell, one of the most renowned scholars of universal mythology. The proposed reflections aim to analyze the possibility of framing the athlete within the scope of the myth, which is verified by the verification of the protagonists' passage through the nucleus Separation-Initiation-Return of the monomyth, standard route of the mythological adventure of the hero, a predestined figure to overcome challenges and to perform great deeds.

Full textAbstract:
Rosa Montero's novels Lágrimas en la lluvia and Peso del corazón focus on Bruna Husky, an android private detective living in Madrid in 2109. Husky's career leads her into investigating various sinister plots, both of which she falls victim to. These quests lead her to make discoveries about herself that challenge her beliefs about herself. All the cases that Bruna investigates take her on journeys that mirror Campbell's structure of the monomythic quest. My analysis of the novels focuses on how Bruna follows the model of the Campbellian cycle while at the same time questioning the quest, keeping true to archetypes of the feminine quest as established by Anis Pratt and Dana Heller. My article focuses on three distinctive steps in the quest, the crossing of the threshold, initiation, and the return, as well as the most important characteristic of the feminine quest, the heroine's negation of the patriarchal society.

Full textAbstract:
A ideia de circularidade, de unidade e de renovação cíclica é um tema frequente nas obras de Caio Fernando Abreu e configura uma estrutura narrativa com o mesmo padrão. Tal estrutura, que reproduz o ciclo da vida, está refletida nos textos ficcionais, ao narrar a história de um personagem-protagonista, da transição da infância para a adolescência até a maturidade. Este trabalho propõe que o conjunto da obra ficcional do escritor pode ser lido como uma unidade narrativa cujo enredo é a trajetória de um personagem na formação de sua individualidade, de sua consciência e de sua vocação literária. Ao enfocar o indivíduo, com as suas experiências, encontros e desencontros, dramas e alegrias, o escritor compõe uma radiografia emocional do humano de seu tempo, em um período de quase quatro décadas. Além das questões expostas, e por elas, intenta destacar a relevância, a atualidade e a qualidade da obra de Caio, por abordar temas universais e perenes que ultrapassam aquele momento histórico e por seu estilo original e refinado no trabalho da palavra. O Autor fez sua passagem em 1996 e seus livros continuam sendo reeditados, inclusive com material inédito, e novas traduções de suas obras estão sendo publicadas, assim como e-books, no Brasil e no exterior. O fato de conquistar tantos leitores jovens do século XXI confirma a vitalidade da obra deste mestre de engenho e arte. Para investigar e descrever as maneiras como a unidade narrativa é realizada, os referenciais teóricos são os ensaios de Ricardo Piglia, as conferências e palestras de Jorge Luis Borges, as teorias do Romance de Formação ou Bildungsroman, as pesquisas de Joseph Campbell relacionadas à Jornada do herói ou Monomito e outros estudos complementares.<br>The idea of circularity, of unity and cyclical renewal is a frequent theme in the works of Caio Fernando Abreu and sets up a narrative structure with the same pattern. This structure, which reproduces the cycle of life, is reflected in fictional texts narrating the story of a character-protagonist, since the transition from childhood to adolescence and until maturity. This work proposes that the set of the writer's fictional work can be read as a narrative unity which plot is the trajectory of a character in the formation of his individuality, his conscience and his literary vocation. By focusing on the individual, their experiences, encounters and disagreements, dramas and joys, he composes a human emotional radiography of his time in a period of nearly four decades. In addition to the issues exposed, and for them as well, the study intends to highlight the relevance, timeliness and quality of Caio's work, by addressing universal and perennial themes that transcend his historical moment and for his unique and refined style in the art of writing. The Author has passed away in 1996 and his books continue to be reissued, including unreleased material, new translations of his books are being published, as well as e-books, in Brazil and abroad. The fact that he has been conquering so many young readers of the XXI century attests to the vitality of the work of this master of ingenuity and art. To investigate and describe the ways in which the narrative unity is performed, the theoretical background are the essays by Ricardo Piglia, conferences and lectures by Jorge Luis Borges, theories of Novel of Formation or Bildungsroman, Joseph Campbell's research on The Hero's Journey or Monomyth and other additional studies.

Previous issue date: 2017-08-23<br>The representative figure of the mythological hero has an important significance for any and all society. Superheroes of comics have played a similar role in modern times not only because of their innumerable mediatic appearances, but because they are a direct or indirectly grounded form of representation in the heroic figure in the society of diverse cultures. In this scenario, Batman, hero of the comics, stands out in popularity and brings in one of the most well-known brands in pop culture and most valued of the cultural industry. However, in order to understand the representative strength of the character as a brand, it is necessary, first, to analyze the journey of the character, from its creation, to the media in which it is published, as well as the planned associations of Develop the narratives of the adventures of the hero, completely based on the concepts and mythical characteristics that form this type of character.<br>A figura representativa do herói mitológico tem uma importante significação para toda e qualquer sociedade. Super-Heróis de Histórias em Quadrinhos exercem, em eras modernas, um papel semelhante, não apenas por suas inúmeras aparições midiáticas, mas sim, por serem uma forma de representação, direta ou indiretamente fundamentadas, na figura heroica, na sociedade de culturas diversas. Nesse cenário, Batman, herói oriundo dos quadrinhos, destaca-se em popularidade e acarreta em uma das marcas mais conhecidas na Cultura Pop e mais valorizadas da indústria cultural. Entretanto, para que se compreenda a força representativa do personagem como marca, é necessário, antes, que haja uma análise da jornada deste, desde a sua criação, aos meios de comunicação em que o mesmo é veiculado, bem como as associações planejadas, de desenvolver as narrativas das aventuras do herói, completamente fundamentadas nos conceitos e características míticas que formam esse tipo de personagem.

Full textAbstract:
L’espace, le lieu et le paysage imprègnent le parcours héroïque dans les œuvres de Sylvie Germain au point de bouleverser le héros dans son rapport à l’extériorité. L’aspect protéiforme du décor héroïque engage l’analyse vers une distinction liminaire entre un espace primitif d’une part, et, d’autre part, un lieu transformé. L’étude se propose de révéler les espaces fantasmagoriques nés des lieux et des espaces fortement connotés. Les paysages imaginaires, qui constituent le second volet de notre étude assimilent de nombreux référents mythologiques qui participent à la réussite narrative. Les espaces imaginaires, spécifiés par leur charge intertextuelle, ouvrent de manière complexe et fortement référentielle la création de l’espace germainien. Cette complexité se retrouve dans les parcours physiques et intellectuels des héros. Par ce biais, l’auteure crée paradoxalement son propre espace textuel, auquel elle accorde une place significative dans l’économie des œuvres. Enfin, l’examen aborde le mouvement, qui caractérise l’esthétique germainienne, et qui propose une singularité narrative. C’est aux espaces textuels que l’on est conduit. Le questionnement final interroge sur la disparition du référent géographique lorsque le lieu s’avère de moins en moins accompagné d’une histoire, d’une localisation ou d’un nom. Les espaces traversés, étudiés, fantasmés, urbains, naturels, invitent la réflexion à entreprendre une taxinomie topographique en lien et en tension avec la stratification du parcours héroïque. Si le lieu, l’espace ou le paysage traités dans nos recherches se situent au cœur du processus d’écriture d’une auteure versée dans l’imagerie du terroir aux espaces enracinés, l’errance narrative, marquée par l’abandon de précisions spatiales dans les derniers récits, interroge l’auteure sur son rapport actuel à l’espace et rétrospectivement sur sa fonction dans sa création antérieure<br>The space, the place and the landscape permeate the heroic journey in the works of Sylvie Germain to the point of upsetting the hero in his relation to exteriority. The protean aspect of the heroic environment engages the analysis towards a preliminary distinction between a primitive space on the one hand and a transformed place on the other. The study proposes to reveal the phantasmagoric spaces born of places and spaces strongly connoted. The imaginary landscapes, which constitute the second part of our study, assimilate many mythological references which participate in the narrative success. The imaginary spaces, specified by their intertextual charge, open in a complex and highly referential way the creation of Sylvie Germain’s spaces. This complexity is reflected in the physical and intellectual paths of heroes. In this way, the author paradoxically creates her own textual space, to which she gives a significant place in the novels. Finally, the examination emphasizes the movement, which characterizes the aesthetic of Germain, and which proposes a narrative singularity. It is to the textual spaces that we are led. The final interrogation questions the disappearance of the geographic referent when the place is less and less accompanied by a history, a location or a name. The spaces traversed, studied, fantasized, urban, natural, invite reflection to undertake a topographic taxonomy in tie and tension with the stratification of the heroic journey. If the place, the space or the landscape treated in our research are at the heart of a author’s writing process in the imagery of the soil to the rooted spaces, the narrative wandering, marked by the abandonment of spatial precisions in the last stories, interrogates the author about its present relation to space and retrospectively on its function in previous creation

A análise aponta para uma diferença entre o pensamento tipicamente japonês, que tende a encarar com naturalidade a presença de forças opostas num mesmo ser e na natureza, em contraste com a forte separação entre Bem e Mal presente nas religiões judaico-cristãs.<br>This dissertation thesis proposes the analysis of the trajectory of the manga Angel Sanctuarys protagonist, from author Yuki Kaori, originally published in Japan between 1994 and 2000, considering Joseph Campbells Heros Journey, in order to trace his profile as a contemporary Japanese manga hero. It also proposes the analysis of the mangas dialog with the Judeo-Christian mythology, main source of the authors inspiration and references for the confection of her story. To do so, the characteristic elements of comic books and the Heros Journey are presented, so that they can be applied to Angel Sanctuary, in which the journeys steps and archetypes are indicated, as well as their relations to the mythologies in which they are based. The analysis points to a difference between typical Japanese thinking, that tends to face the presence of opposing forces inside a single being and in nature with naturality, in contrast with the well-defined separation between Good and Evil existent in Judeo-Christian religions.

Full textAbstract:
Background: This thesis aims to show that the narratives of the Nag Hammadi Apocalypse of Pauland First Apocalypse of James are written for a Valentinian audience. The purpose is to broaden the field of research on Valentinianism by showing how the authors and their implied readers composed and perceived the texts in question. Method: Comparing the mythological language of the two narratives and their description of a hero’s journey in a transcendent reality it is possible to disentangle the Valentinian material from the imaginative world of the reader, a world consisted of ancient Egyptian and Greek mythology as well as Jewish apocalypticism and early Christian legends and traditions. The texts are also compared with new research in the field, other related Valentinian scriptures, the New Testament, and Christian Apocrypha. Results: The texts are pseudepigraphic and written within a Jewish apocalyptic genre sometime during the late second or early third century. The symbolism and the diverse metaphors of the narratives indicate that the texts incorporate a specific soteriological message through embedded Valentinian mythology. The implied reader is to understand that the material world is an illusion and that the purpose of the initiate is to awaken the mind and acquire knowledge about the truth. By doing so the redemption of the believer’s spirit from its human body and soul leads to the spirits reunion with God. Conclusion: The analysis of the texts points toward the fact that the narratives could very well have been used for catechetical or other educational purposes within a Valentinian community. The language and form of the two narratives fit to serve this purpose. In many ways, the reader has to be initiated within a Valentinian context in order to grasp the intended message.<br><p>Godkännande datum 2019-06-10</p>

Full textAbstract:
I denna vetenskapliga uppsats kommer boken En man som heter Ove och filmen En man som heter Ove jämföras med varandra, med fokus på Oves tillbakablickar. Detta görs genom att analysera bokens och filmens tillbakablickar som förklarar Oves förflutna. Filmens tillbakablickar visas via flashbacks. Syftet med denna uppsats är att se hur stor påverkan skillnaden mellan bokens tillbakablickar och filmens användande av flashbacks har på karaktären Ove. Oves resa placeras i Craig Battys modell av protagonistens resa, både i bok och film. De båda resorna jämförs med fokus på Oves bakgrundsberättelse och hur det påverkar Oves karaktär i nutid. Vidare analyseras filmens val av flashbacks med hjälp av Linda Aronsons teori om flashbacks användning och funktion. Analysens resultat visar att Oves bakgrund har stor betydelse för hur Ove agerar i nutid vilket leder till att Ove upplevs olika i de olika medierna.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Supervised Injectable Opiate Treatment (IOT) is a complex, intensive treatment modality that has been effective in treating long-term, chronic, previously treatment refractory heroin users. The mechanisms that make it an effective treatment modality are little explored, and never in a UK context. Aims: In a UK supervised IOT context, this thesis set out to describe the long-term treatment trajectory of patients receiving IOT. Additional aims were to describe the experience of patients receiving IOT and ascertain the role of IOT in the patient’s overall journey of recovery. In so doing, the thesis contributes to the scientific understanding of IOT. Method: Quantitative measures are employed to describe treatment process and the effect of treatment duration on outcome. Qualitative measures are utilised to describe the following: patients’ drug use and treatment histories; goals for, motivations, and expectations of IOT; experience with IOT; satisfaction with IOT; views on the impact of IOT; and views of, and goals for, patients’ recovery. Results: Quantitative findings illustrate that some participants remained in IOT long-term, whereas others discharged or moved back on to oral treatment modalities. When long-term IOT was undertaken, initial gains made were sustained. Qualitative findings illustrate that patients conceive effective IOT as flexible, psychosocial, person-centred, and encompasses autonomous ongoing support. Recovery is perceived as an ongoing, individualised journey, and the need for support following both IOT and abstinence are identified. Discussion: Strengths and limitations of the research are discussed. IOT is best delivered as an individualised, time-limited, goal-driven, flexible treatment programme for those entrenched users with long-term, treatment refractory histories. Numerous findings have utility for policy and clinical practice and there is scope for examination of individually tailored treatment programmes through further research and, a systematic exploration of longitudinal outcomes.

Full textAbstract:
This essay examines influencers’ framing of mental illness and how the framing could possibly affect the growing problem of mental illness among Swedish youth. Previous research concerning mental illness among youth, social media and social contagion is presented as a basic understanding of the problem at hand. Approximately 16 000 Instagram posts from Sweden’s most influential Instagram accounts were reviewed for content about mental illness. Posts containing descriptions of mental illness were extracted and analyzed using thematical analysis. The main finding from the thematical analysis was that influencers tended to use The Hero’s Journey dramaturgy in the framing of mental illness. The main conclusion made from the study was that influencer framing of mental health issues, consciously or unconsciously, tended to augment mental illness in a number of ways. The influencers seemed to have developed specializations in different forms of mental illness. The specialized influencer took upon him/herself the role of a mentor to followers experiencing symptoms of the same type of mental illness, leading them on for their own Hero’s Journey. Hence, the mechanisms of The Hero’s Journey were shown to, in themselves, have a tendency to increase the contagious effects of mental illness.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>東吳大學<br>英文學系<br>97<br>Both Monkey in The Journey to the West and Odysseus in The Odyssey can not avoid killing. Therefore, each of them has a double-image as a killer-hero. Their acts of killing, however, are not intended for the purpose of entertaining the readers; they suggest a ritual act of cleansing. The ritual act of cleansing serves as heroes’ efforts for getting away from their past as well as their sufferings, and this is the focus of my research. In my thesis, in addition to presenting a general view regarding “ritual killing” as an act of purification, I shall also discuss the distinct philosophical and religious principles governing their acts. My discussion shall concentrate on chapter 14 of The Journey to the West, and chapter 22 of The Odyssey. In the 14th chapter of The Journey to the West, the author talks about the killing of the six robbers (六賊) who symbolically represent the “six roots” (六根)—the Eyes (眼), the Ears (耳), the Nose (鼻), the Tongue (舌), the Body (身), and the Mind (意), which receive the six dust (六塵) and make human beings suffer from karma (業). In The Odyssey, chapter 22 presents the slaughters of all the suitors and many others. Odysseus purifies his murderous vengeance by burning their corpses. I am going to argue that these acts are justified by the author as a ritual cleansing or purification, which symbolically represents the hero’s endeavor to regain a new positive view of life. A comparison of the versions of “killing” will show a fundamental difference, drawn in a religious-philosophical (The Journey to the West) or cultural-philosophical (The Odyssey) basis, between the two epic characters. In The Journey to the West, in order to get away from karma, Monkey’s slayings show an important manifestation of his efforts to comprehend the most important lesson for the four pilgrims—“mind-cultivaion” (修心). At the same time, his slayings indicate his wisdom of exterminating human desires and make him the protector and the teacher of Tripitaka .In The Odyssey, Odysseus represents the appointed king who legitimately to rule finally completes his exile and regains his throne. Also, his slaughter declares that the qualified hero, with the gods’ support protects the cultural law of “hospitality” by killing its violators. Therefore, in both cases, the killing acts symbolically as the manifestation of the maturity of the heroes’ characters, and provides them with a final fulfillment which shows their identity as religious or cultural models.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>國立臺灣科技大學<br>設計研究所<br>97<br>In recent years, many heroes have been created through novels, movies, video games, cartoons, etc. Those that are familiar with many of us include Harry Potter, Superman, the characters of World of Warcraft, and so on. They were presented to the world by the creators’ originality and innovations. We could also see that these "heroes" did not fall out of favor with the gradual intellectual growth of the world, but contrarily with a greater variety of media, greater innovative possibilities and recognition for creativity of the hero role could be more easily shaped and entering our lives.
Among the great variety of media, comic books tend to display unlimited creativity and unique heroes most directly. Especially in Taiwan, from reference of the sold number of comic publications, it has been long ranked as the largest sold publication among various genres and printed media. In addition, Japanese comics has held a 90% share in the Taiwan market for years, creating a situation of monopoly. In other words, the bulk of sales publications in Taiwan could been perceived as mainly comic books, and each comic book story represents a story as well as an adventure of a hero.
How are heroes created?
What must a hero go through in order to be recognized as a hero?
This study focuses on two Japanese comics – "Rurouni Kenshin " and "Yu-Yu Hakusho" – to explore the roles of the hero from mythological viewpoints and consequently comprehending whether if there is a set rule or procedures in creating the comic book ‘s hero. The study applies the model from Campbell's hero model in addition to the adventures and journeys in his book “The Hero with a Thousand Faces” (1949), to discuss the role of heroes in Japanese comics.
The results of the study show that although “Rurouni Kenshin”and “Yu-Yu Hakusho” are two different stories, but with Campbell's model we can deconstruct the contents of the framework and discover that the heroes in these two comics are created almost according to Campbell’s model but still with some small different, which shows the heroes can be created through the same process despite different cultures and beyond boundaries.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>玄奘大學<br>宗教學系碩士在職專班<br>100<br>Buddha is the leader of Buddhism. Is it appropriate to call Buddha a hero? This article analyzes Buddha’s life and Buddha’s hero personality traits according to two important theories of heroes. These two theories are the hero’s journey in “The Hero with a Thousand Faces” by the contemporary mythologist, Joseph Campbell (1904 – 1987), and the classification and personality traits analysis of heroes in “On Heroes and Hero-Worship” by the English writer, Thomas Carlyle (1795 – 1881).
Campbell widely read books and concluded a single myth, the hero’s journey: departure, initiation and return. With the hero’s journey, the life of Buddha can be divided into three stages: leaving the Palace to seek the meaning of life (departure), having realized the ultimate reality of existence through all difficulties (initiation), propagandizing truths (return). The Buddha’s life indeed coincides with a hero’s journey. Carlyle defined six categories for heroes and found out more than ten hero personality traits. This article compared the hero personality traits with Buddha’s personality traits and the connotation of ‘the ten titles of Buddha” to see whether Buddha’s personality traits and hero personality traits are the same or different. It is found that the connotation of “the ten titles of Buddha” is even more abundant than the hero personality traits in Carlyle’s book. Therefore, Buddha is not just a hero but a great hero.
This article further elucidates the meaning of a hero’s existence: contributions to the world. The wisdoms Buddha left for the world is a great treasure and is also the meaning of the hero’s journey. Buddhism has the power to help people move toward the goodness, to calm and comfort people, and to relieve people’s distress. In general, Buddhism is the method to attain to world peace. Therefore, Buddha is a hero who has both wisdom and blessing. Buddha can only be a hero from the western perspective. However, in Buddhism and in the Eastern world, Buddha is not just a hero but also beyond a hero.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>國立臺北教育大學<br>語文與創作學系碩士班<br>104<br>Master Hayao Miyazaki is a well-known animated director in the world. Not only are his works widely loved, but are translated into many languages. Furthermore, his works also spread in the world. Miyazaki’s works acquired a lot of recognitions of foreign awards. However, after four decades-long creative career, he announced that The Wind Rises would be the end of his lengthy animated career, and he would engage in the short animation production only. In Hayao Miyazaki’s works, we can find features such as unique camera angles, colorful and vivid images, youths and maidens, as well as environmental awareness and ecological conservation in stories.
However, domestic researches for Hayao Miyazaki's works are confined to the features list above. A few other researchers make cultural cross reference their main themes. None of them bring in “Mythology” or “The Hero’s Journey” on their review.
Therefore, this article,The Hero’s Journey in Hayao Miyazaki’s animations , will follow the concept of "Hero’s Journey", proposed by Joseph Campbell in his “The Hero’s With A Thousand Faces” to examine the six original works of Hayao Miyazaki, including Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, Laputa Castle in the Sky, My Neighbor TOTORO, Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away, and The Wind Rises. The symbol of works, prototype, significance of storyline, and the original prospect of "The Hero’s Journey" are the focus of this study.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>逢甲大學<br>經營管理碩士在職學位學程<br>107<br>For a small to medium enterprise (SME) in Taiwan, it is common for the owner’s wife to assist in the development of its business. Although the nature and significance of these women are quite different from those of a common female employee or female entrepreneur, few literatures have touched on the special role these female individuals play in developing and running a business through the startup stage and how they cultivate their own abilities along the way.
This study intends to explore how modern women of different generations and backgrounds adapt to the rather submissive role as an owner’s wife; including their effort to engage their own entrepreneurial process through identity build-up and adjustment as well as advancement in business skills and knowledge (this study excludes families running an inherited business). The findings of this study may provide clues to those interested in reflecting on couple-owned SMEs and female startups to identify their structural features and differences, which are helpful for making adjustments to one’s mindset and marital relationship.

This thesis presents and analyzes the author's original jazz composition "A Hero's Journey," based on the ancient and widespread storytelling pattern that Joseph Campbell called the "monomyth." Using major concepts from the monomyth, the author composed a suite for ten-piece jazz orchestra consisting of six scenes divided into two acts. Although rooted in the jazz tradition, the piece borrows freely from classical music, African music, Indian music, and modern rock and hip-hop to create an adventurous and continually evolving musical experience. This thesis first provides an overview of the entire suite, then discusses its important melodic themes, and finally analyzes the techniques used for harmonic development within the piece.<br>text

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>國立臺東大學<br>兒童文學研究所<br>102<br>Louis Sachar, an author of American children's literature, is known by his Wayside School series in Taiwan. As one of Sachar's young adult novels, Holes not only won the Newbery Medal in 1999 but also served as the basis of the film Holes produced in 2003. Small Steps, published in 2006, is the sequel to Holes. Both novels are stories about youth crimes. Louis Sachar depicted teenagers facing many challenges in their growth process with his humorous signature style. By analyzing the two novels and reflecting critically, this thesis hopes to offer, on the one hand, a rational and pragmatic understanding of and, on the other hand, right approaches to teenagers' problem behaviors. This thesis also hopes to aid readers and those who work with teenagers to gain insight into teenage psychology.
This thesis study adopts mainly textual analysis and first discusses the characteristics of the author's writing as well as the theme topics presented in the two works: Holes and Small Steps. Also the thesis compares the personality traits of the main juvenile characters investigates the depicted juvenile problems, and explores the possible of youth crimes within the contexts of the two novels. Next, the thesis engages "reincarnation" perspective to understand the role and significance of causality in the three embedded stories in Holes and examines how such an understanding of causality can help both the characters and readers treat their interpersonal relationships. At last, the thesis employs the theory of "mythic structure" to trace the youth characters’ hero journeys, the re-formation of their self-identities, and resulting growths.
From the study of the two works, this thesis reaches the following conclusions: first, we should not only pay attention to teenagers' external behaviors but also care about their life crises and life attitudes during their growth. Second, the best approach to juvenile delinquency should be "prevention is better than cure", hand in hand with a mindful resistance to stereotyping and labeling problematic youths. Last, youth is the stage during which teenagers can easily lose themselves to temptations, pitfalls, and serious harms/crimes. Yet, youth is not without invaluable lessons it can offer — teenagers have to go through the mill; otherwise they cannot be reborn or refashion their selves. This thesis expects that the two Sachar's works can inspire real-life teenagers to have a positive attitude toward their life journeys, celebrate youth, and continue to grow with fuller confidence and self-awareness.

碩士<br>國立臺北教育大學<br>數位科技設計學系(含玩具與遊戲設計碩士班)<br>101<br>This study discusses if assistant tool-graphical stimulus would improve the story of
design and also decrease the difficulties in story design. The participations in this study
are 60 adult. Their education background is above secondary education; their age is in
average 25 years old. The study executes in two steps. In order to leveling the creativity
between test group and control group, at first, we separate all participants in two groups
by the creativity test. And then, the participations make up story, which refer to the
structure of “the Hero’s Journey” by Joseph Campell. The test divides the story into
eight parts. Test group would receive graphical stimulus in every part of story, and the
control group only receive simple description instead of graphical stimulus. The test
group feels less difficult than control group in this study. Generally, assistant tool has
positive impact on making up story. The structure of story would be much more
complete due to assistant tool. However, the ends of stories made up by control group
are much more different. And the story content would not be limited in specific themes.
The creativity of control group is higher than test group.
The purpose of this study is to stimulating creativity and imagination. Research
tooling refers to Torrance Test for Creative Thinking (TTCT).In the future, assistant
tools should be developed in different aspects. And then, assistant tools would stimulate
creating and imagination in multi-aspects.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>國立臺東大學<br>兒童文學研究所<br>100<br>The interior of human beings is not as simple and complete as the exterior. Most of Ursula K. Le Guin’s imaginary works narrate the voyage from the outer space into the inner journey, in other words, metaphors of the exploration of egos’ growth and recognition.
The Earthsea Cycle, a masterpiece by Ursula K. Le Guin, is not only a classical fantasy work, but also a Bildungsroman. Being confronted with different challenges, the main characters have their own tasks to be dealt with. The subject of this study is Ged the Wizard and has invoked the structure of Joseph Campbell’s “The Hero’s Journey” in order to analyse the adventure of “Home-Away-home” and “Departure-Initiation-Return”, process of pursuit and growth; and investigate this text to see how it concretely present the “shadow” and “individuation” in Carl Gustav Jung’s analytic psychology. What does this text’s presentation mean and symbolize? How does Ged integrate the ideas from Taoism’s “Natural and Inactive”, “Being in the source”, ”Lives”, and “Balance and Equilibrium” with the western fantasy literary works? If we take this text in comparison with a human body, Campbell’s Heroic theory is like “Skeleton”; Jung’s Individuation theory is like “Flesh”; Laozi’s ideas is like “Blood”, and Ged’s exploration is just like the “Skin” adhered to the surface of the body.
This text provides speculation practice for readers. By way of reading Ged’s “The Earthsea Cycle”, we can hopefully undertake the responsibility of a member from nature and create a more tactful and positive life through Ged’s personal speculation and investigation that how a man would smoothen his own spiritual barrenness and balance his interior conflicts in order to be inclined to a completely whole “Man”.
