The term "Monomyth," often referred to as the Hero's Journey, is a narrative structure identified by scholar Joseph Campbell in his book "The Hero with a Thousand Faces." It describes a common pattern found in myths and stories across different cultures, where a hero embarks on an adventure, faces challenges, and ultimately returns transformed. This journey typically includes stages such as the call to adventure, crossing the threshold, and the return home. The Monomyth framework highlights the universal themes of growth, struggle, and self-discovery. It serves as a tool for understanding storytelling in literature, film, and other forms of art, illustrating how diverse narratives can share similar underlying structures and messages.
