Reflection Of A Hero's Journey Chapter 3

Decent Essays
My reflection from chapter three there journey is starting to get tough so that means they have to get tougher if they want to make it. The further they get into nature, and the further away from town they get there is going to be hard spots to pitch the tent. There is going to be many different types of wilderness that are going to pose challenges or them when trying to set up a tent. I think they could have been better prepared for weather, bugs, and camping problems by first getting a better tent. There tent seems very flimsy and cheap. Secondly, they could have brought different cloths to keep bugs off them, and use bug spray to repel them away. There are a few dangers they encountered in this chapter the first one was not having enough

    Campbell begins his explanation of the hero’s journey by revealing the first step of his monomyth, The Call to Adventure. The call can not be seen as physical nor as musical, instead it can be viewed as every person's tether to the universe and when the universe pulls that tether, it demands the attention of those it calls. The universe should not be seen as tyrannical however, for it calls a person to adventure not to be cruel but to bestow the knowledge that a rite of passage must soon be taken. In the end though, each individual person must choose whether they accept the call to adventure or refuse it as seen when Adam & Eve in “Paradise Lost” are given the call when God forbids them from eating from the Tree of Knowledge. Representing Innocence…

    King Arthur and Spiderman are two fictitious characters that are both similar, and dissimilar to each other.

This represents a continuous cycle that the character in the story must go through in order to complete their journey.

    faith, so why are they so mean and unfriendly I thought to myself? The way that they presented themselves every morning influence my thinking about nuns in a negative way.
