S4 E10 Heroine's Journey With Jo March And Anne Shirley Pt 2 (With Star)

My guest Star is here to talk to us about Heroine's Journey and we are discussing the heroine's journey in Lucy Maud Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables and Jo's heroine's journey in Little Women. I was told that Gilbert's proposal to Anne in the 80s AOGG is almost exactly the same as Laurie's proposal to Jo in 1933 Little Women. Of course, I had to check if this was true and I have recorded these two proposals and mine and Star's reactions. It is an interesting detail and I think it might be one of the reasons why so many people somehow link Anne and Gil and Jo and Laurie together. Oh Hollywood what do you do to us?What an amazing episode! My guest Star is here to talk to us about the "heroine's journey". The heroine's journey came about in 1990 when Maureen Murdock, a Jungianpsychotherapist and a student of Joseph Campbell, published a self-help book called The Heroine's Journey: Woman's Quest for Wholeness.Star has been studying the heroine's journey through characters such as Jo March from Little Women and Anne Shirley from Anne of Green Gables.
