What is a properly functioning mythology and what are its
functions? Can we use myths to help relieve our modern anxiety, or
do they help foster it? In Myths to Live by, Joseph Campbell
explores the enduring power of the universal myths that influence
our lives daily and examines the myth-making process from the
primitive past to the immediate present, retuning always to the
source from which all mythology springs: the creative imagination.
Campbell stresses that the borders dividing the Earth have been
shattered; that myths and religions have always followed the
certain basic archetypes and are no longer exclusive to a single
people, region, or religion. He shows how we must recognize their
common denominators and allow this knowledge to be of use in
fulfilling human potential everywhere.
