Hero In Greece Essay, Research Paper

There are eight steps a person must take to become a hero, most noticably an

epic hero, in Greek Mythology. These eight steps are the call, the threshold,

the challenges, the abyss, the transformation, the revelation, the atonement,

and the return. The hero’s invitation to adventure can lead to the opportunity

to face the unknown or gain some valuable experience. The hero must pass through

the threshold to begin his journey, encountering the threshold

guardian–something that guides and helps him with useful info/advice/items to

continue his quest. Athena is often shown as the threshold guardian. The

challenges come one after the other and get harder along the way. The big

challenge in the story is the Abyss, the challenge that brings on the

transformation. The hero becomes changed–emotionally, mentally, etc. He then

begins to realize how the transformation will change his life. Then the hero is

enlightened, and returns to the palace where he/she started with a gift or a

prize.
