The prevalence of exile has long been a striking phenomenon in human history and the recurrent appearances of the exile motif in both Western and Eastern literaures reflect that exile has turned out to be an increasingly vital and significant subject with which authors are highly concerned. As a matter of fact, exile can be seen as an archetypal situation of primordial human race because 'Adam was the exile' and if we trace further back, Lucifer, Prometheus, and Io were exiles, too. Mythologist Joseph Campbell has asserted that quest is an archetypal desire of mankind and exile is the first step to quest. In this sense, the element of exile has inherently run in man's blood and it seems that man is destined to be an outcast in the vastness of the universe and through the stream of time. He usually begins his journey of life with various dreams and then strives to fulfill them through constant exiles and pursuits. |
