- Propp.
- Campbell, Fletcher and Greenhill.
- Bishop.
Propps theroy
The vilian - Struggles against the hero.
The dispatcher - The character who makes the lack known and sends the hero off.
The (magical) helper - Helps the hero in the quest.
The princess or prize - the hero deserves her/him throughout that but is unable to marry them because of an unfair evil, normally this is the villian, the story finnishes when the hero marries her/him, which means thay have defeated the villian.
Her/his father - gives the task to the hero, identifies the false hero, marries the hero, often sought for during the narrative. Propp noted that functionally, the princess and the father can not be clearly distinguished.
The donor - prepares the hero or gives the hero some magical object.
The hero or victim/seeker hero - reacts to the donor, weds the princess.
False hero - takes credit for the hero’s actions or tries to marry the princess.
Out of all these characters that Propps has identified in his theory of thriller characters i would describe Paul as the villian. I would say this because of her past, present and how he now does not have much of a future then what his present is because of his actions in the past.
