Kung Fu Panda- Character Archetypes
HERO: Po SHADOW: HERALD: Master Oogway THRESHOLD GUARDIAN: Master Shifu TRICKSTER: The Furious Five (Initially), Mr Ping (wanted Po to quit to focus on noodles, discouraged kung fu training) MENTOR: Master Shifu ALLIES: The Furious Five MOTHER: No one fills this role, although Po's Father could also be fulfilling both roles as a single parent FATHER: Mr Ping (Po's Father) CHILD: No one fills this role, perhaps Po is as he seems rather childish initially, playing with toys ect.. MAIDEN: No one to fill this role. I don't think Tigeress is the Maiden as she doesn't need rescuing and she doesn't really fall for the hero SHAPESHIFTER: Master Shifu
Dear Oliver,
ReplyDeleteLooking at what you’ve done so far I think what you need are more Library resources and more up to date ones. I’ve made some suggestions for further research below:
The Simpsons, Satire, and American Culture - ebook (you may need to log in using your UCA email address and password.
Understanding popular culture (ebook) - Chapter 2 Commodities and Culture
Postmodernism and Popular Culture - Chapter 10 DIFFERENT, YOUTHFUL, SUBJECTIVITIES TOWARDS A CULTURAL SOCIOLOGY OF YOUTH
Watching with the Simpsons television, parody, and intertextuality - print book
Also, do make use of your electronic journal search. I’ve linked to an example search here so you can see what’s available: "the simpsons" satire animation in particular Reading the Ungraspable Double-Codedness of: The Simpsons (click on the article link in the search and then click the green PDF button to download).
If you need anything else, you can reach me via aday7@uca.ac.uk or email gatewayrochester@uca.ac.uk to arrange a tutorial.
Thanks,
Andrew
