[[George Lucas]] built on the idea of the [[monomyth]] - a dominant mythic structure that for some reason resounds especially strongly with the human psyche - in structuring his narrative. He consulted closely with [[Joseph Campbell]], author of the book, "Hero of a Thousand Faces," towards the end of utilizing [[monomyth]] structure especially well. In ''Star Wars'' (now known as Star Wars Episode 4:A new Hope), the reluctant hero is obviously [[Luke Skywalker]], the teacher [[Obi Wan Kenobi]], and the inner world the galaxy at large.
