The document outlines Joseph Campbell's model of the hero's journey as described in his book "The Hero with a Thousand Faces", including the common stages of departure, initiation, and return that appear in many stories and myths. It provides examples of the first five stages of departure - the call to adventure, refusal of the call, supernatural aid, crossing the first threshold, and the belly of the whale - and asks the reader to apply these stages to the origin story of a superhero of their choice.
This presentation explains the structure of a hero's journey explained in Joseph Campbell's Hero with a Thousand Faces, using examples from popular films.

We all are pursuing our individual hero's journey through life. Some are oblivious to it, others are consciously seeking answers to big questions, slaying dragons, crossing rivers of fire and fighting off zombies and other mythical creatures to get to the path of enlightenment and find freedom and happiness.

The HeroSymbolic Vitality Our deepest fe.docxrtodd33
The Hero:
Symbolic Vitality
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
(Coach Carter)
The Adventure
A Hero ventures forth from the world of the common day into a region of supernatural wonder: fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won: the hero comes back from the mysterious adventure with the power to bestow boons on his fellow man (J. Campbell, H1K, 30)
Separation:
In the call and separation, the hero’s activity must be directed toward some goal outside him/herself to lead to his/her authentic wholeness.
The Call:
“The journey always begins here. The call is to leave a certain social situation, move into your loneliness and find the jewel, the center that’s impossible to find when you are socially engaged” (J. Campbell)
We are off center in the social. We define ourselves through external criteria, expectations, contexts.
Initiation:
The Battles.
The passage over and through these thresholds is a kind of self-annihilation, either inward or outward, a contest between contradictory forces within the self which the hero must face before he can perform his life renewing act.
The Temptations at the Threshold
JesusEconomic: power over othersPolitical: power over othersSpiritual (when ideology becomes dogma): power over God.
BuddhaLust (desire): personalFear: personalSocial Duty (do what you are told): social
In these struggles, the hero comes to wholeness and a new relationship to the world and is made suitable for his role within the culture.
These struggles/trials/temptations are where to gain yourself, you must lose the self you have come to cling to as “yourself.”
This is the giving up of what you planned for yourself in order to embrace what has been waiting for you.
“Psychologically, it’s a shift into the unconsciousness, otherwise, it’s a move into the filed of action of which you know nothing.” (J. Campbell)
The result of these trials may be favorable or unfavorable. It depends on your reasons/your purpose.
The Return:
“The Hero has died a modern man; but as eternal man—perfected, unspecific, universal man—he has been reborn. His second solemn task and deed therefore is to return to us, transfigured, and teach the lessons he has learned of life renewed.”
(J. Campbell, H1K, 20)
The hero winds up where he/she began, but is transfigured and posses boons to bestow upon his fellowman.
In Sum:
“Where we had thought to slay another, we .
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

3. What are the common aspects of all
superhero stories?
Hint: Stories about childhood difficulties,
a physical ailment or weakness, etc..
List at least 4 characteristics that all
superheroes have in common
4. Joseph Campbell, a philosopher, wrote a book in
which he described common aspects of all stories
about heroes. His book, The Hero with A Thousand
Faces, inspired George Lucas to write and direct
Star Wars.
5. There are 17 aspects that depict the life of the
Hero.
Here are the first five:
The first set is called the
Departure: This is the beginning of Hero’s
Journey
6. 1.The Call to Adventure
The call to adventure is the point in a person's life
when they are first given notice that everything is
going to change, whether they know it or not.
a. Think about the Superhero you have chosen.
What was his/her first ‘call to adventure’?
7. 2. Refusal of the Call
Often when the call is given, the future hero
refuses to heed it. This may be from a sense of
duty or obligation, fear, insecurity, a sense of
inadequacy, or any of a range of reasons that work
to hold the person in his or her current
circumstances.
a. When did your superhero have his/her ‘refusal
of the call’?
8. 3. Supernatural Aid
Once the hero has committed to the quest,
consciously or unconsciously, his or her guide and
magical helper appears, or becomes known.
a. What ‘supernatural aid’ does your superhero
receive?
9. 4. The Crossing of the First Threshold
This is the point where the person actually crosses
into the field of adventure, leaving the known limits
of his or her world and venturing into an unknown
and dangerous realm where the rules and limits are
not known.
a. When did your superhero first do his/her heroic
deed? When did they first meet the challenge?
10. 5. The Belly of the Whale (from the story of Jonah
and the Whale)
The belly of the whale represents the final
separation from the hero's known world and self. It
is sometimes described as the person's lowest
point, but it is actually the point when the person is
between or transitioning between worlds and their
new identity. It is the beginning a re-birth..
a. When did your superhero hit his/her lowest
point? When did he/she finally accept his/her new
identity?
11. He must go on a journey and learn some
important things which he/or she must bring
back and share with society… He or She
becomes a moral guide…
12. How do the characters in Star Wars fit the five
aspects of the Hero’s Journey?
13.
14. B Inititiation
1. The Road of Trials
The road of trials is a series of tests, tasks, or ordeals that the person must undergo
to begin the transformation. Often the person fails one or more of these tests, which
often occur in threes.
2. A Higher Love
The point in the adventure when the person experiences a love that has the power
and significance of the all-powerful, all encompassing, unconditional love.
3. Temptation
At one level, this step is about those temptations that may lead the hero to abandon
or stray from his or her quest, This can take the form of a physical or material
temptations of life that distracts the hero from his/her spiritual journey.
4. Forgiveness and reconciliation
This is the center point of the journey. When the hero returns to his/her spiritual
journey and accepts the will of God or the gods. This often leads to the hero’s
symbolic death. . For the transformation to take place, the person as he or she has
been must be "killed" so that the new self can come into being. Sometime this killing
is literal, and the earthly journey for that character is either over or moves into a
different realm.
5. Apotheosis
To apotheosize is to deify. When someone dies a physical death, or dies to the self to
live in spirit, he or she moves beyond the pairs of opposites to a state of divine
knowledge, love, compassion and bliss. This step is a period of rest, peace and
fulfillment before the hero begins the return.
6. Fulfillment of the Quest
This the achievement of the goal of the quest. It is what the person went on the
15. Challenges heroes must overcome:
External:
Natural: storms, terrain, animals, etc…
Man-made: Wars, disputes with friends and family
Internal:
Fear: doubt, anxiety, lack of faith
Pride: Hubris, placing one’s self at the center, placing
one’s self higher than the spiritual realm and all others in the
society
Spiritual: (This can be both external and internal):
Relationship to the gods (or God)
Encounters with evil: This often takes the form of
monsters and villains and various physical and material
temptations.
Which of these challenges have been present in the life of the
hero you have chosen?
16. A. Return
1. Refusal of the Return
So why, when all has been achieved, and we have conversed with the gods.
Why come back to normal life with all its cares and woes?
2. The Magic Flight
Sometimes the hero must escape with the treasure that the gods have been
jealously guarding. It can be just as adventurous and dangerous returning
from the journey as it was to go on it.
3. Rescue from Without
Just as the hero may need guides and assistants to set out on the quest, often
times he or she must have powerful guides and rescuers to bring them back to
everyday life, especially if the person has been wounded or weakened by the
experience.
17. 4. The Return
The trick in returning is to retain the wisdom gained on the quest, and then
figure out how to share the wisdom with the rest of the world. This is usually
extremely difficult.
5. Freedom to Live
Mastery leads to freedom from the fear of death, which in turn is the freedom to
live. This is sometimes referred to as living in the moment, neither anticipating
the future nor regretting the past.
Think of the movie ‘Lord of the Rings’… What happens to the Hobbits upon their
return? How have they changed and what new wisdom do they share with the
Shire?
