Ehud Havazelet: Hero Worship: An Agnostic’s Notes (January 2001)

$5.00

While the hero’s journey remains an important paradigm for fiction writers, our culture has many different and changing versions of heroes.  In this lecture, Ehud Havazelet looks at a range of examples, from John Wayne to Oskar Schindler, and from Chekhov to Flannery O’Connor, to examine a variety of heroic modes, including the figure whose heroism is largely posturing and visible, and the hero whose heroism is private and less visible, and even the anti-hero who comes to heroism in unexpected ways.
