The Heroic Quest Free Video Course

In this award-winning course, lively Professor Joseph Hughes explores one of the oldest plots in the world: the HeroвЂ™s descent into the underworld. As Hughes reveals, everyone from Gilgamesh, to Odysseus, to the heroes in modern day novels have been put through some version of вЂњHellвЂќ in order to confront either real or metaphorical demons and come out the better for it. This вЂњKatabasisвЂќ (or вЂњDescentвЂќ) is a durable story-form that has shown up in the literature of many different cultures, and in the course, Hughes will use several literary examples as jumping off points to discover how readers can apply this concept to lead richer, more fulfilling lives.
