Joseph Campbell: The Wisdom Of Joseph Campbell, Part 11/12

Part 11. FOLLOWING YOUR BLISS. Heeding the "call of the Hero" and following your heart's longing is the challenge of contemporary times.--Part 12. ADVENTURES IN MYTH. Campbell tells us why the quest is the highest adventure and how its pursuit will transform our lives.

The late Joseph Campbell is a marvel to listen to as he brings us in touch with our mythic heritage. More than any other single individual, he has brought mythology into the American mainstream, significantly affecting our perceptions of the world around us and our shared human experience. He is the author of many volumes on mythology including The Hero With a Thousand Faces (Bollingen Series, Princeton University Press 1968), The Mythic Image (Bollingen Series, Princeton University Press 1974) and The Masks of God (Penguin 1991). He was featured in the six-part PBS series, "Power of Myth" hosted by Bill Moyers.
