The first volume in Joseph Campbells monumental four-volume The Masks of God series, originally published in 1959 and now revised with up-to-date science and new illustrations in this Collected Works of Joseph Campbell paperback edition
In this first volume of The Masks of God, the worlds preeminent mythologist explores and illuminates the wellsprings of myth. Showing his exemplary combination of scholarly depth and popular enthusiasm, Joseph Campbell looks at the expressions of religious awe in early humans and their echoes in the rites of surviving primal tribes. Campbell shows how myth has informed our understanding of the world, seen and unseen, throughout time. As he explores and shares archetypal mythic images and practices, he also points to how these concepts inform our personal lives.
Upon completing The Masks of God, Campbell found that his work affirmed the unity of the race of man, not only in its biology, but also in its spiritual history. He likened this unity to a symphony in which various parts create a great movement. Perhaps more than ever before, Campbells insight is not only illuminating but also inspiring.
