[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Different people have speculated that there are a limited number of plots, although they may differ on what that number is. Christopher Booker apparently narrowed the number down to 7 plot types. Here’s a Wikipedia page discussing his theory: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Seven_Basic_Plots [/quote] I’ve also heard the theory that there are only two plots: (1) stranger comes to town, or (2) a person goes on a journey. Of course, very direct retellings like OP referenced are slightly different, as they also use the very same characters as in other works. [/quote]
