My students will explore the hero’s journey by examining vividly illustrated retellings of The Odyssey and Ramayana: Divine Loophole to learn about the myths. This text will allow students to explore stages of a hero’s journey and how it mirrors real life; a hero follows the call to adventure, faces his fears, and overcome his flaws to improve life for all people. Students will learn about the timelessness of the monomyth and how it has shaped the storylines we follow today. With this foundation, students understand the importance of this genre to storytelling across time and cultures and how the hero’s journey mirrors the struggle of human experience that they themselves face in their own lives.
