With my research paper, I decided to focus on the villain archetype out of all of them. The villain archetype can be defined as the evil character who exists to cause disorder, confusion, and mayhem on society and to battle against the hero. The one character that I feel and demonstrates the villain archetype would be Spitz from, “The Call of The Wild”. Reasons as to why I believe this is that in the story, Buck and Curly finally arrive to the Klondike Region of Canada and quickly learn that they need to survive with primal instincts against Spitz and his pack. However, Spitz, with no ounce of mercy within him, causes trouble within the pack and lures Curly into a false sense of companionship, only to be killed moments later by him.

Commonly the protagonist of a story is the hero, showing the typical characteristics of bravery, strength, and ingenuity, while always undertaking dangerous tasks to help others. However, there are different kinds of heroes, who range in their attributes. An anti-hero has both good and bad qualities to their character and generally has moral flaws. The personality of anti-heroes is more of a villainous nature and is the character of a story that is more relatable. R.P. McMurphy from Ken Kesey’s One
Why are villains the ones who make the plot more shadowy? Leaving clues, making crazy decisions and blaming fault on others. Villain, are the most amazing character in the story where they lead to corruption of society or civilization. Jack from Lord of the Flies and Abigail from the Crucible wear masks to hide their true behavior and to fit into their community. Abigail and Jack appear to have a lot in common at first glance, they are remarkably similar.
Villains are a huge part of movies, stories and books. Without a villain in a plot, the story isn 't the same. Villains provide a problem in the story of the movie or book. The rudest, meanest, dirtiest villain that I know, is Gothel: Rapunzel 's evil step mom.
What did John mean when he said “If one’s different, one’s bound to be lonely” in the story Brave New World? What I think John meant was that when people are different from others, they might feel excluded because they don't typically fit in with those certain types of people because they can have certain types of differences they like and don't like or they can have different liking's which can cause them to feel lonely and feel like they don't have a social life and making it hard for them to express their feelings and their actions towards other people. But it can also be good for the person that is feeling lonely because they can experience life by doing things by themselves and not counting on others to do those things for them. Why did John the Savage say that? He said that because he was also experiencing loneliness and feeling
There were many heroes in Fearless. Adam, Kelly, and more helped to change each other 's lives for the better. They helped to pull each other up. Adam would not have achieved what he did without the many heroes supporting him. Adam Brown and almost everyone he knew is a hero.
A hero is a person who is admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements or noble qualities (Hero). A Villain is a person who has evil actions or motives to harm people (Villain). In my opinion, a hero is usually the person in the story that everyone likes or looks to for help and the villain is the misunderstood or worst person in a situation. As humans we can be portrayed as a hero or villain when diverse situations occur. In August Wilson’s play, “Fences” Troy Maxson’s past, present and future caused significant traits of being called a hero and a villain in segments throughout the play.
The Hero This hero is the principle character in a story, show or motion picture. As a rule, this character ends up being the legend. It is normally simple to recognize the hero on the grounds that the storyline spins around them and their lives, issues and inside clashes.
When baking a cake, the baking soda’s role is to make the cake mixture rise and increase in volume, in its absence the cake fails to take on a proper shape or texture. The culinary term for the baking soda’s role is a “leavening agent”; the better the leavening agent is the better the cake tastes, and the more there is the more it rises (Cristensen). Just like cake requires something to make it rise, heroes require something to compliment their mixture of potential to bring the best out of the cake batter. Many find this thought to be an encompassing truth: that the hero’s rising ingredient is an obstacle, coming in the form of a villain or a challenge, and that the quality and quantity of obstacles elevate the hero. It seems etched in human
In this article, “Why We Love TV’s Anti-heroes,” the author Stephen Garrett argues that in today’s society our whole perspective of heroes has changed since the mid-twentieth century.

It is often hard not to root for the villain in a story. There is something fascinating about villains. Villains are often easily likeable because of their intelligence, wittiness, and clever way of earning the trust of others before unveiling their true intentions. Three characters in literature that are intriguing for their charm, their manipulative ways, and their relentless thirst for revenge are Roger Chillingworth from The Scarlet Letter, Iago from Othello, and Tom Buchanan from The Great Gatsby.
Thirdly, the motive or justification that the villain shows has a huge factor on determining who is a villain. The most evil villains murder and harm people for no reason whatsoever. Finally, the villains presence of remorse can show how evil one is. The villains that show no remorse are the worst because this shows how they do not care for any of their victims. In the story, “The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson, the townspeople show that they are very evil because of the type, number, and method they use to kill and harm their victims.
I was once in a dark place a few years ago. I was depressed by my mother’s breast cancer until I found a person, who was on the internet, changed my life for the better. On that day, I watched his humorous videos everyday from there on, and he became my hero. Heroes endure challenges when others will not, are determined to do what is right, are not perfect but rather mistakes while inspiring people.

“These heroic archetypes pop up all over Western Lit. They are: Stereotypical/Classical Heroes, Everyday/Everyman Heroes, and Anti/Un Heroes” (Bunting). Each type of hero is used for certain reasons; not all stories use the anti-hero and the classic hero is not always the way to go. There are many reasons why an author would choose to use a certain type hero in their work.
