Mythological-Archetypal

 The mythological-archetypal approach involves identifying, analyzing, and interpreting universal


myths, symbols, and archetypes within literary works. It highlights the enduring power of these
elements to convey complex ideas and emotions while connecting readers to the timeless
aspects of the human experience. This approach helps readers and scholars uncover deeper
layers of meaning and significance in literature by recognizing the presence of archetypal
patterns and themes.

1. What archetypal characters and figures are present in the text?


2. What universal themes and symbols recur in the text?
3. How do archetypes shape character development and motivations?
4. What cultural or historical variations of archetypes are evident in the text?
5. How do archetypes connect the text to broader mythological and cultural traditions?
