R.K. Locke Wrote:Very interesting. What is your take on Joseph Campbell, David? I've watched some interviews with him online and he seems to know his subject very well, but I've never invested any time in his books. Worthwhile?

Impressive.

His "The Hero with a Thousand Faces" was required reading in one school I belonged too.

Understanding mythology and having mythological pulses rooted in one's own psyche as a living dictionary is fundamental, for the psyche is a million years old and talks in the archaic language of myths and riddles.

But I am not at all well read on Campbell.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
Carl Jung - Aion (1951). CW 9, Part II: P.14
