This collection, first published in 1992, offers
critical-interpretive essays on various aspects of the work of
Joseph Campbell (1904-1987), one of a very few international
experts on myth. Joseph Campbell examines myths and mythologies
from a comparative point of view, and he stresses those
similarities among myths the world over as they suggest an
existing, transcendent unity of all humankind. His interpretations
foster an openness, even a generous appreciation of, all myths; and
he attempts to generate a broad, sympathetic understanding of the
role of these 'stories' in human history, in our present-day lives,
and in the possibilities of our future.
