Identification is usually supposed to be largely unconscious: I may be aware that I like a given character, but not that I actually see them as an alter ego, a version of me, or a projection of my aspirations for myself. It would be a mistake to think all heroes foster identification, or that all villains inhibit identification—many, perhaps even most, characters elicit some degree of identification on the part of the reader or spectator. |
