What is the book “The Writer’s Journey: Mythological structures in literature and cinema”: At the heart of any exciting story - whether it is a fairy tale, myth, plot for a novel or a film scene - lies the journey of the hero: internal or external. This idea became the guiding star for Christopher Vogler, when, working in the script department of the Disney studio, he checked in practice the effectiveness of mythological schemes described in the famous work of Campbell"s “yarrous hero”. Later, a practical manual written by Vogler for colleagues turned into a classic textbook, which is not only included in the circle of compulsory reading of future writers and screenwriters, but for decades does not lose a leading position among many books of this kind. In the “Writer’s Travel”, the author invites the reader to explore the shaky borders between the myth and the contemporary art of telling history, warning of the difficulties and dangers of traveling to the bowels of his own soul, and armes with useful tools that in the hands of a skilled master gain incredible power.
