Cultural Identity Hero
Each one of these novels, talks, and narrative encompasses the identity of the cultural hero through a common theme of separating a large topic and narrowing it down to target a specific group. The identity of the cultural hero is one that is superior to that of the universal hero because a cultural identity hero can be found in almost every country, religion, ethnic group, or race. Not only does it create a unique and special meaning to those of that certain group, but it also provides a hope that is more comforting. To be able to relate a hero that embodies a particular trait of oneself not only gives it more a meaning, but also provides more fuel to a person or nation that is trying to achieve a goal. Thus, a cultural identity hero is one that creates a connection to a small group of people but can have an overwhelming effect on a large amount of people for generations to come.
