Antagonistien

Antagonistien is a term used in various fields, including literature, film, and psychology, to describe a character, force, or element that opposes or conflicts with the protagonist. The term originates from the Greek words "anti," meaning against, and "agon," meaning contest or struggle. In storytelling, the antagonist serves several purposes: to create conflict, challenge the protagonist, and provide a sense of tension and excitement. The antagonist can be a character with opposing goals or values, such as a villain in a superhero story, or a force of nature, like a storm in a survival narrative.
