Star Wars sources and analogues
''Star Wars'', the space opera saga and cultural touchstone, is acknowledged to have been inspired by many sources. These include Hinduism, Qigong, Greek philosophy, Greek mythology, Roman history, Roman mythology, parts of the Abrahamic religions, Confucianism, Shintō, and Taoism, and countless cinematic precursors.
George Lucas has said that chivalry, knighthood, paladinism, and related institutions in feudal societies inspired some concepts in the ''Star Wars'' movies, most notably the Jedi Knights. The work of the mythologist Joseph Campbell, especially his book ''The Hero with a Thousand Faces'', directly influenced Lucas, and is what drove him to create the 'modern myth' of ''Star Wars''. The natural flow of energy known as The Force is believed to have originated from the concept of ''prana'', or ''qi/chi/ki'', "the all-pervading vital energy of the universe".
Amongst the celebratory 30th anniversary of ''Star Wars'', The History Channel premiered a 2-hour event covering the entire ''Star Wars'' saga entitled ''Star Wars: The Legacy Revealed.'' Featuring interviews from the likes of Stephen Colbert, Newt Gingrich, Nancy Pelosi, Tom Brokaw, Dan Rather, Peter Jackson, acclaimed scholars, and others, the program delved further into the Heroic Epic concept and the influences of mythology, and other motifs that were important in making ''Star Wars''. Subjects include sins of the father and redeeming the father, coming of age, exiting the ordinary world, and others.
