Facultad de Filosofía y Letras K1 Heroes K1 Archetypes K1 5701.11 Enseñanza de Lenguas AB The Antebellum South has always raised interest in contemporary writers, as it is one of the most aching periods of American history. This is the reason it is a recurrent topic in American literature, in which some patterns are commonly followed in order to build a story. Myths and archetypes are a recurrent tool in order to frame those stories. Django Unchained is framed into those archetypes adapted to this moment in history. The present dissertation aims at analyzing the way in which the archetype of the hero and his journey is vital to understand this story. In order to do this, the different stages and phases of the hero’s journey will be confronted with the plot of the movie. Results aim to offer an insight into whether this pattern and archetype are more or less present in the movie.
