Abstract: (741 Views)
Man's inner journey is repeated in a new format in the myths and traditions of different nations at different times and places. In Joseph Campbell's view, all world myths speak of a single pattern and structure. According to the "single myth" model, he describes the hero's journey through the veil to the unknown world in three parts: separation, arrival and return. In The Writer's Journey, Christopher Vogler modifies Campbell's pattern by presenting a twelve-step structure of the hero's journey for reading heroic stories. In this research, we try to study and compare the mythical structure of Ibrahim Adham's story with an analytical-comparative method and with a mythological approach based on Vogler's travel pattern, and show the similarity of mystical memoirs with the author's travel pattern. The result of this study shows that the story of Ibrahim Adham is completely consistent with the stages of Vogler's model. After three stages of invitation, Ibrahim Adham enters the realm of wonders and after the stage of purification and cultivation in the womb of the cave, he experiences a rebirth. As a result of enduring difficult trials, he renews his life and returns to the heart of society in the stage of returning with the elixir of spirituality.
