Myths to Live By: How we re-create ancient legends in our daily lives to release human potential - Campbell, Joseph
Myths to Live By: How we re-create ancient legends in our daily lives to release human potential - Campbell, Joseph
Clean, tight, unmarked; very light wear to edges; small scratch near spine on back cover; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; appears unread; In this book, 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, returning 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.
