    If I Ever Get Out Of Here Analysis

    In the book "If I Ever Get Out of Here" the author Eric Gansworth writes about the dangers of assumptions. He writes about this theme throughout the book by introducing situations in which an assumption of a character or a group, often times based on race, turns out to be incorrect and leads to issues between the two people or groups. Lewis and his family both make assumptions about George's family because he is from off the reservation and there are assumptions made about Indians and Lewis by teachers, classmates, store workers, and more. While Lewis is being bullied by Evan, a kid at his school, many people didn't believe that the situation was as bad as Lewis claimed. When discussing the problem in the lunchroom some of the kids agreed that Lewis is just "making the easy Indian claim" (p. 207).…

    Joseph Campbell Monomyth Analysis

    After several years of studying and teaching mythology, Joseph Campbell, an American mythologist, writer and lecturer presented the idea of the monomyth. This concept invokes the theory that all mythical stories have a character that had an ordinary world, goes on an adventure, had a crisis, but won and earned victory and then finally comes home and has changed in some way. Joseph Campbell’s theory of the monomyth first showed an appearance in his book “The Hero with a Thousand Faces”. Found on a wikipedia page that talks all about the concept of the monomyth quotes, “A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder: fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won: the hero comes back from this mysterious adventure with the power to bestow boons on his fellow man.” In a way, I could be considered a hero because of my actions that I have done throughout my journey.…
