Realizacja mitu heroicznego na przykładzie cyklu wiedźmińskiego Andrzeja Sapkowskiego oraz mangi „Berserk” Kentarō Miury

Abstract

The heroic myth is one of the most common literary tropes around the world. In different cultural circles, the plot of a myth may take a different form, but it always oscillates around the same events. Examples of the realization of the heroic myth are both the series about the witcher by Andrzej Sapkowski and the manga Berserk by Kentarō Miura. Geralt and Guts exhibit similar traits and behaviours on the way to understanding their identity and destiny. The article presents different attitudes of the protagonists who implement the aforementioned heroic myth. Comparative considerations have been enriched with the context of the concept of archetypes by Carl Gustav Jung.
