refers to ancient patterns of personality that are the shared heritage of the human race. Similar to allegorical characters, their motifs are usually rooted in folklore; archetypal characters represent an ideal or symbolic image such as love, wisdom, heroism, villainy, forgiveness etc. (Griffiths, 2015) Archetypes are fundamental psychological patterns within a person; they are roles a person may play in society, essential ways of interacting with others. Because they are basic to all human beings, they cross cultural boundaries and have universal appeal. (Truby, 2007, p. 74)
