Myth and Psyche: An Introduction to Jungian Perspectives on Human Mythology
According to Jung, myth-making is a natural and impersonal potential present in the collective unconscious of all peoples throughout all times. Drawing on the contributions of Jung, Campbell, and Eliade, this course explores the role of myth in human life. Five of the major mythological themes prominent in world mythology are examined in terms of their contemporary psychological and cultural significance:
1) Creation
2) The Divine Child
3) The Hero
4) The Shaman
5) The Apocalypse
The introductory session, titled “Mythology and Psychology: A Jungian Perspective”, is available for free through the Jungianthology Podcast
