Frog Prince Archetype
Hi Mircy Almorza,
Thank you for sharing. I liked the fairy tale Frog prince when I was a little kid, too. As what you have mentioned, there are many archetypes in this story, among which the father of the princess acts as the mentor who gives her guidance and education that she should keep her words. One the other hand, the princess is a hero archetype as she accepted and helped the frog after reminded by her father. However, I think the frog prince is also a hero character rather than an everyman archetype, because he makes great efforts to overcome his situation. Furthermore, the characters are complicated that it has more than one archetype, which means that the characteristics of these protagonists will combine the traits of different

    Archetype In Hero's Journey

    A movie that I have seen that has a “Hero’s Journey archetype plot pattern” is Moana. It starts when she learns that there is an awful thing going on other islands and she is intrigued to go and explore beyond the reefs, which is the call to Adventure. She also gets lots of unconditional love when her ancestors appear, guide the path, and previously her grandma showed lots of support. But then the refusal to call hits fast when Moana wants to leave but her dad rejects and says to be happy where you are.…

    Archetypes In Star Wars

    Archetypes stem from the mind of Carl Jung. Archetypal or the collective unconscious is a pool of universal memories that everyone shares, a network of files. Universal characters with common attributes constitute an archetypical character, such as in Star Wars the heroic character is Luke Skywalker, who is on a quest to search his own history and to save the princess. Luke Skywalker has the common heroic attribute of a special power as Luke finds himself well within the force and the fact that in his hometown planet of Tatooine he excels as a terrific landspeeder pilot at his age. Luke also has received kudos for his marksmanship skills. Princess Leia represents the victim and a martyr as she risks her life by providing the construction plans of the Death Star to rebel forces. Han Solo is quite a character he represents a rotten apple turned do-gooder, throughout the movie his character transgresses…

    Archetypes In The Little Mermaid

    This fairytale of the Little Mermaid you chose seems very interesting they way you described it. I do see that the Little Mermaid is an archetype for innocent and the Prince is seen as an archetype for hero. This movie does seem to be the archetype for star crossed lovers because they both come more different worlds and have things that stand in there way for a happy ending. Does the movie explain this different place and time where they could be together? Could the sea witch also be an archetype for the villain as well?…

    Beowulf: Archetypes rough draft

    Archetypes are used in almost every story ever told. Some may be basic, while others can be more elaborate. The most important archetypes are those used in characters. If one was to compare characters from different tales, no matter the time period in which they were created, a strong similarity would be strikingly apparent. This is because of archetypes. An archetype sets the tone for a certain thing. The archetype of the color white, for instance, is innocence. This causes one to associate the color white with innocence. The same goes for character archetype. The archetypes of characters effectively placed unto the plotline of Beowulf both make Beowulf stronger, and essentially destroy him as well. These influences, combined with the heroic archetype shown in the character of Beowulf, have set a model for some modern tales of a hero’s journey. An example of this is The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien. In the hobbit, many of the character archetypes as first presented in Beowulf appear again. In Beowulf, you will see many archetypes used in characters placed into the story to move it along. Many will change the premise of stories forever. The use of archetypes in Beowulf both influence Beowulf in his quests as well as modern literature today.…

    Beowulf-Ideal Hero or Freudian Fraud?

    Beowulf-Ideal Hero or Freudian Fraud?

    The entire cast of characters in the Scandinavian epic tale Beowulf all possess archetypal qualities that make them less complex in psychological development than the standard characters in the majority of literature in existence. Beowulf, the hero from the land of the Geats, acts as a representation of good, while each of the monsters he consecutively faces are forms of evil. Since Beowulf appears to be an unstoppable force for the good of the people, it would be difficult to see how he could not be an ideal hero. However, archetypes are not perfect; they lack the depth of character development and only act as the standard form of something. Beowulf still falls victim to mankind’s failings, such as the desire to be famous and to be remembered forever. He wants nothing more than to have his name be sacred and his image godly. The word ideal means “a conception of something in its perfection”. With that in mind, Beowulf is not an ideal hero because, like every man with power, he contains flaws that make him far from a standard of perfection.…

    The Epic Hero

    An epic hero is a man of extraordinary strength, distinguished courage, and talent admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities. I believe heroes should hold many qualities upon themselves such as sacrifice, focus, bravery, courage, determination, and loyalty. A hero, in the opinion of others, has heroic qualities or has performed a heroic act, and is regarded as a model or ideal. Beowulf is a character of a legendary epic hero. He becomes a leader of his people, which is destined to face the source of danger.he is willing to risk his life for the greater good, his people. He is also willing to face his fears, and meet them head on. Beowulf makes difficult/ hard decisions, even when the outcome is bad.
