Shrek, our Reluctant Hero. Taken from Google Images |
We have learned that an archetype is a typical example of a person or thing - a recurring object, image, or pattern of events in mythology, literature, and films. For this journal entry, I want you to think about your favorite Disney, Pixar, or Dreamworks film. What are the character archetypes that you can find within this famous animated film? Who is the Trickster? Who is the Hero? Who is the Anti-Hero? Who is the Wise Old Man?
Why do so many cultures use these images of people and things over and over again? What's the point?
