The Hobbit as seen through Christian Virtue Ethics and Norse Mythology / Kristen dygdetik och Nordisk mytologi i Bilbo – En hobbits äventyrHarrysson, Karl Axel January 2022 (has links)
The works of J.R.R. Tolkien have been analysed through a Christian perspective claiming Christian influences numerous times. Additionally, Tolkien was inspired by Norse Mythology in his works. However, his first novel, The Hobbit, has often been overlooked. This essay has therefore analysed the main characters of The Hobbit in order to determine whether his influences were mainly from Christian Theology or Norse Mythology. This has been done through the use of Archetypal Criticism. Specifically, the vices of greed and pride has been set as the foundational archetypes of the research. The results show that Norse Mythology is the major influence of the characters.

The Promise: A Mythic-Archetypal and Gender-Oriented Analysis of J.D. Salinger's "A Perfect Day for Bananafish"Spratley, Warren 27 November 2013 (has links)
This thesis is an analysis of J.D. Salinger’s “A Perfect Day for Bananafish” from both mythic-archetypal and gender-oriented perspectives. It looks specifically at the way a gender-oriented reading allows one to interpret “Bananafish” as a radical reassessment of Carl Jung’s ideas about the process of individuation, as well as Joseph Campbell’s conception of what he describes as the monomyth in his The Hero with a Thousand Faces. The reader is asked to look at how patriarchal values have greatly limited the development of these characters’ identities over time, and the complex archetypal and mythic implications of this limitation.

Previous issue date: 2013-10-31 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / This work is an analysis of the film Antichrist, by Lars von Trier, from the archetypal criticism proposed by Northrop Frye. The hypothesis is that the film uses narrative patterns whose matrix is biblical to organize his narrative.
The first chapter deals with the film and the work of the director. In the second chap-ter, the first step is to define what archetype means in literature, with authors who have worked with the concept. Then our main theory is presented in the work of the Canadian critic Northrop Frye. The third chapter, finally, is an analysis of the film from three different approaches: gender, in which we discuss the tragedy in Anti-christ; mode, in which the narrative of the film is perceived in the tension between the realistic and mythic narratives; and images, in which patterns of imagery stand out from the film in relation to vertical poetic, to the woman and the erotic relation-ship and to the nature and the garden / Este trabalho é uma análise do filme Anticristo, de Lars von Trier, a partir da crítica arquetípica proposta por Northrop Frye. A hipótese é a de que o filme recorre a pa-drões narrativos cuja matriz é bíblica para organizar sua narrativa.
O primeiro capítulo aborda o filme e a obra do diretor. No segundo capítulo, a primei-ra etapa consiste em definir o que arquétipo significa em literatura, apresentando os autores que trabalharam com o conceito. Em seguida, é apresentada nossa teoria principal na obra do crítico canadense Northrop Frye. O terceiro capítulo, por fim, é uma leitura do filme a partir de três eixos: gênero, no qual se discute a tragédia no Anticristo; modo, no qual a narrativa do filme é percebida em sua tensão entre as nar-rativas realista e mítica; e imagens, no qual se destacam padrões imagéticos do filme em relação à poética vertical, à mulher e a relação erótica e à natureza e o jardim
