Journey Motif

In literature travel is usually a metaphor for discovery. The theme of this journey was used by Coleridge's "Kite of Ancient Sailors". Hawthorn's "My Kinsman, Major Molineux" and "Young Goodman Brown" also show this. In these stories, each hero changes between the beginning and the end of the story. In addition, religion plays an important role in these stories. In travel literature, there are several obstacles that the hero must overcome. In Coleridge 's "Kite of Ancient Sailors", crews showed negative things.

Last year, I published a paper on 'The moment of the travel of the gospel of John' in Seoul, Korea. At that time, I tried to easily examine the theme of the journey from the theological point of view of the Bible and its transformation, especially the transformation in Johnny 's literature in the 4th Gospel. "Journey of the gospel of John" is more than a simple metaphor. In the Gospel of John, the theme of "journey" contributed to the construction of an internal structure Reading the Gospel of John linked the audience and readers to the many journeys of the Old Testament, and as a traveler, the world of the story of John I will travel. «This time, I thought that the theme of 'journey' can be found not only in the Johnny church of the world of the Bible but also East Asian ideas such as Old Testament and Ephemeral literature, Taoism and so on.

The prototype plot pattern is a story pattern reproduced in all documents. The general story mode is a hero's journey (the trip is almost synonymous with the storytelling itself). In the theme of the journey you can identify common changes such as the mission and the story of enlightenment. Another famous prototype plot is the story of "falling from innocence", the story of "crime and punishment", and many other stories. If they try, writers can not avoid prototypes. They are only basic materials for building literature. No matter where you are, you can find it in the novels, movies, and the whole Bible. (Look at the Bible Image Dictionary edited by Leland Ryken and others for a study of 1,000 pages of Bible prototypes and patterns.
