Abstract
The tale of the anti-hero has long been told time and time again across many cultures. Its rise in popularity has been attributed to people no longer believing in traditional heroism “as a declining society was inadequate for it and as man had a sense of powerlessness in the face of a blind technology” (Neimneh, 2013).
