George Lucas, the creator of the Star Wars franchise, was influenced by Joseph Campbell's book "The Hero With A Thousand Faces" while writing Star Wars. Campbell discovered the monomyth of a Hero's Journey that is shared among world mythologies. In this ongoing course, we will explore characters in the Star Wars franchise to evaluate their Hero's Journey, Anti Hero's Journey, and Villain's Journey.

Students will learn the different components of the Hero's Journey and identify them in Star Wars and world mythologies.
