內容簡介：
Since its release in 1949, The Hero with a Thousand
Faces has influenced millions of readers by combining the
insights of modern psychology with Joseph Campbell’s revolutionary
understanding of comparative mythology. In these pages, Campbell
outlines the Hero’s Journey, a universal motif of adventure and
transformation that runs through virtually all of the world’s
mythic traditions. He also explores the Cosmogonic Cycle, the
mythic pattern of world creation and destruction.
As part of the Joseph Campbell Foundation’s Collected Works of
Joseph Campbell, this third edition features expanded
illustrations, a comprehensive bibliography, and more accessible
sidebars.
As relevant today as when it was first published, The Hero
with a Thousand Faces continues to find new audiences in fields
ranging from religion and anthropology to literature and film
studies. The book has also profoundly influenced creative
artists—including authors, songwriters, game designers, and
filmmakers—and continues to inspire all those interested in the
inherent human need to tell stories.
