Why do writers still employ archetypes today?

English

Sliva [168]3 years ago

The reason why writers still use Character archetypes is because they have been working since ancient times and still work.

think about it, you have probably heard of these character descriptions in every great book/story/movie.

Shapeshifter- the character that can change turn into something (AKA the werewolf and that pirate from the pirates of a Caribbean) or just go from good to evil or evil to good.

The Hero- no explanation needed

the trickster-A character for comic relief and to cause mischief

The guardians threshold- basically henchmen and stop the hero from moving on there journey

the Herald- the person/object that gets the hero to go on a journey

the mentor- the person that teaches the hero about the world. Also trains the hero

the shadow- the main villain that the hero has to defeat. 

Also there is the monomyth that is the story structure. But you just wanted to know about character archetypes. BTW what class is this in, (and the grade level), I have always been interested in this.

GenaCL600 [577]

Explanation:

external conflicts are when a character vs nature, society, technology, or another character. internal conflicts are when a character vs himself or herself. internal and external conflicts can make a character think or act a certain way to reveal a theme. external conflicts are identified by looking for what is stopping the character other than themselves. internal conflicts are identified by looking why and how the character is holding themselves back. Hopefully this helps you understand this concept better.

<span> D. (9) Sadly, even after that water is found, only some of its clean and safe enough to drink.

In this sentence, "its" should have an apostrophe to change the word to "it's". this is because "it's" is a contraction for "it is". "Only some of it is clean and safe" is how the sentence would read.</span>

After reading “The Nose”, what is one assumption that a reader might make about Russian culture?
Masteriza [31]

After reading “The Nose”, one assumption that a reader might make about Russian culture is that Power and physical beauty are valued in Russia. They regard both equally, not one above the other.

<h3>What do you know about Russian culture?</h3>

Russian literature, ballet, painting, and classical music are all deeply ingrained in its long and rich cultural history. In spite of what foreigners may think, Russia has a tremendously visual cultural history, from its vibrant folk clothes to its elaborate religious symbols.

In "The Nose," a St. Petersburg official's nose escapes his face and takes on a life of its own. The nose transforms into an independent, fully-fledged character that is significantly more powerful than its owner and does not want to acknowledge him.

Hence, the assumption that reader makes about Russian culture is  Power and physical beauty are valued in Russia.
