"'Enemy Cripple & Beggar' provides an informed and thoughtful
perspective concerning literary good and evil alongside society's
norms and mores. An original work by Erel Shalit . . . a unique
blend as a literary and psychology manual, making it highly
recommended for both personal reading lists and community library
collections." -Midwest Book Review..... "A fascinating journey into
the Hero and the Shadow . . . a treasure for our times. Vital and
applicable to both lay people and experts, the book flows
seamlessly and spirally from scholarship, to textual
interpretation, to case studies, and the analysis of dreams. Shalit
draws on an impressive breadth of scholarship and myths/fairy
tales, looking at both history and story." -Joseph Madia, New
Mystics..... 'Enemy, Cripple & Beggar' provides new thoughts
and views on the concepts of Hero and Shadow, elaborating on
mythological and psychological images. Myths and fairy tales
explored include Perseus and Andersen's 'The Cripple.' You'll also
enjoy the psychological deciphering of Biblical stories such as
Amalek - The Wicked Warrior, Samson - The Impoverished Sun, and
Jacob & the Divine Adversary. With the recent discovery of The
Gospel of Judas, Dr. Shalit also delves into the symbolic
relationship between Jesus and Judas Iscariot to illustrate the
hero-function's inevitable need of a shadow. This Fisher King Press
publication can be comfortably read by those interested in
Analytical Psychology and by those interested in the interface
between psychology and mythology, and psychology and religion. Erel
Shalit is a Jungian psychoanalyst in Ra'anana, Israel. He is a
training and supervising analyst, and past president of the Israel
Society of Analytical Psychology. He is the author of several
publications, including The Hero and His Shadow: Psychopolitical
Aspects of Myth and Reality in Israel and 'The Complex: Path of
Transformation from Archetype to Ego.' Articles of his have
appeared in journals such as 'Quadrant, ' 'The Jung Journal, '
'Spring Journal, ' 'Political Psychology, ' 'Clinical Supervisor, '
'Midstream, ' and he has entries in 'The Encyclopedia of Psychology
and Religion.' Dr. Shalit lectures internationally at professional
institutes, universities and cultural forums.
