Christopher Vogler The Writers Journey
It's an experience that has a way of
changing people.
It's also a good idea to read a lot of myths, but reading Campbell's work
amounts to the same thing since Campbell is a master storyteller who delights in
illustrating his points with examples from the rich storehouse o f mythology.
Campbell gives an outline of the Hero's Journey in Chapter IV, " T h e Keys,"
of The Hero with a Thousand Faces. I've taken the l i b e r t y o f amending the outline
slighdy, trying to reflect some of the common themes in movies with illustrations
drawn from contemporary films and a few classics. You can compare the two outlines
and terminology by examining Table One.
