A personal and intellectual portrait of one of the most influential thinkers in the study of mythology. Through reflections on his life, ideas, teaching, and career, the book provides insight into the development of concepts such as the hero's journey and the recurring patterns found in myths across cultures. Rather than presenting mythology as a collection of old stories, it considers how myths continue to shape psychology, art, literature, and personal identity. Readers interested in mythology, comparative religion, storytelling, and the study of archetypes will find an illuminating introduction to a major intellectual legacy.
