The idea of archetypes, especially in Literature, first came to be when Carl Jung applied it to the analysis and studying of literary works. Jung believed that there were common denominators in certain stories and that were universal, regardless of time, place and cultural background. He even believed that archetypes represented what he believed was a common way of thinking, ingrained in human beings and that he denominated primal memory. But it was Joseph Campbell who used the idea of archetypes to study mythology and in the book "A Hero with a Thousand Faces", Campbell defined the concept of hero.

There are 12 different archetypes and all of them are a representation of an image, a plot pattern, a specific character and his/her characteristics, an idea, among other things, that are present in stories. One such archetypes is the idea of the Hero as a Warrior. In this archetype, the character, in the case in mention on the question, Odysseus, is believed to be the paragon of this archetype as he is able to overcome, almost in a god-like manner, physical challenges and defeat all enemies. The correct answer then is A.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
