As well as offering a spiral structure, the process also provides a method by which the interpretation of the text can operate on a macro and micro level. The five stage Ricoeurian process is as follows: (A) Language and Desire (Micro System) (i) Does the narrative express instances of desire that have been previously identified in other texts?

This clearly references The Redemptive Hero tropes that offer teaching up as a vocation used to redeem and rehabilitate the professional who is willing in return to give his life to his profession.
