The 7 story archetypes are:
- Overcoming the Monster
- Rags to Riches
- The Quest
- Voyage and Return
- Comedy
- Tragedy
- Rebirth
Are there archetypes for political intrigues? If not what are the building blocks of a political intrigue and what might be the archetypes for these blocks? I am trying to figure out if we can deconstruct political intrigues into a sort of unit and then enumerate all of the possible building blocks we can use to craft a good political intrigue. I am thinking if there are archetypes to stories, there must be archetypes to political intrigues.
