Excellent discussions for the past few days!
Let's think about archetypes and how they are significant in Wiley Cash's writing. Remember, an archetype is a common pattern repeated throughout many stories (example: Christ Figures, the battle between good and evil). Below is a list of common archetypes in stories. The Quest or Journey The Task The Hero The Blind Character The Shared Meal Death and Rebirth Battle Between Good and Evil The Unhealable Wound The character who thinks they are normal until told they are a hero The Return Home Mentor-Pupil Relationship The Threshold Guardian (Gatekeeper) Father-Son Conflict Hunting Group of Companions The Side-kick The Evil Character with an Ultimately Good Heart The Creature of Nightmare The Outcast Damsel in Distress The Beautiful but Dangerous Lady Friendly Beast The Shadow The Devil Figure The Unfaithful Wife Light vs. Darkness Nature vs. Civilization The Underworld What archetypes do you recognize in your Wiley Cash book?? In the comments below, choose one or two or two archetypes and explain how you see them played out in your book. Make sure to explain why you think the use of this archetype is significant to the story/overall themes of your novel. Your response should be at least 5-6 sentences. After posting, you should reply to two of your peers with a quality 2-3 sentence response (add to the discussion). Your initial reply is due by Saturday night (12 midnight). Your replies should be completed by Monday night (12 midnight).
