Learning Series: Archetypes and the Hero's Journey In-Person
Like numbers to mathematics and science and like letters to language, storytelling has its own fundamental building blocks. The Hero. The Wise Old Man. The Fool. The Everyman. The Innocent. These and so many more exist in every story, from its simplest to its most complex. And even more than that, they exist with us, too. In his first session, Mike McCartney will explore the basics of these recurring figures and in the second session we'll look at The Hero's Journey, perhaps the oldest and most frequently repeated pattern in all of storytelling. He'll spend a little bit of time looking at a few familiar fairy tales and folktales as examples, but we'll also be applying our lessons to your favorite stories, too!
