At a time when the place and significance of myth in society has
come under renewed scrutiny, Myth, Literature, and the Unconscious
contributes to shaping the new interdisciplinary field of myth
studies. The editors find in psychoanalysis a natural and necessary
ally for investigations in myth and myth-informed literature and
the arts. At the same time the collection re-values myths and
myth-based cultural products as vital aids to the discipline and
practice of psychoanalysis. The volume spans a vast geo-cultural
range (including ancient Egypt, India, Japan, nineteenth-century
France, and twentieth-century Germany) and investigates cultural
products from the Mahabharata to J. W. Goethe's opus and
eighteenth-century Japanese fiction, and from William Blake's
visionary poetry to contemporary blockbuster television series. It
encompasses mythic topics and figures such as Oedipus, Orpheus, the
Scapegoat, and the Hero, while mobilising Freudian, Jungian, object
relations, and Lacanian psychoanalytic approaches.
