Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references (pages 179-201) and index "The Politics of Myth examines the political views implicit in the mythological theories of three of the most widely read popularizers of myth in the twentieth century, C.G. Jung, Mircea Eliade, and Joseph Campbell. All three had intellectual roots in the anti-modern pessimism and romanticism that also helped give rise to European fascism, and all three have been accused of fascist and anti-Semitic sentiments. At the same time, they themselves tended toward individualistic views of the power of myth, believing that the world of ancient myth contained resources that could be of immense help to people baffled by the ambiguities and superficiality of modern life." "Robert Ellwood details the life and thought of each mythologist and the intellectual and spiritual worlds within which they worked. He reviews the damaging charges that have been made about their politics, taking them seriously while endeavoring to put them in the context of the individual's entire career and lifetime contribution. Above all, he seeks to extract from their published work the view of the political world that seems most congruent with it."--Jacket 1 - Myth, Gnosis, and Modernity - 1 -- - 2 - Carl Gustav Jung and Wotan's Return - 37 -- - 3 - Mircea Eliade and Nostalgia for the Sacred - 79 -- - 4 - Joseph Campbell and the New Quest for the Holy Grail - 127 -- - 5 - Conclusion: The Myth of Myth - 171 |

Jung, Mircea Eliade, and Joseph Campbell Robert Ellwood Albany State University of New York Press ©1999 1 Online-Ressource (xiv, 207 pages) txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier SUNY series, issues in the study of religion Includes bibliographical references (pages 179-201) and index "The Politics of Myth examines the political views implicit in the mythological theories of three of the most widely read popularizers of myth in the twentieth century, C.G. Jung, Mircea Eliade, and Joseph Campbell. All three had intellectual roots in the anti-modern pessimism and romanticism that also helped give rise to European fascism, and all three have been accused of fascist and anti-Semitic sentiments. At the same time, they themselves tended toward individualistic views of the power of myth, believing that the world of ancient myth contained resources that could be of immense help to people baffled by the ambiguities and superficiality of modern life." "Robert Ellwood details the life and thought of each mythologist and the intellectual and spiritual worlds within which they worked. He reviews the damaging charges that have been made about their politics, taking them seriously while endeavoring to put them in the context of the individual's entire career and lifetime contribution. Above all, he seeks to extract from their published work the view of the political world that seems most congruent with it."--Jacket 1 - Myth, Gnosis, and Modernity - 1 -- - 2 - Carl Gustav Jung and Wotan's Return - 37 -- - 3 - Mircea Eliade and Nostalgia for the Sacred - 79 -- - 4 - Joseph Campbell and the New Quest for the Holy Grail - 127 -- - 5 - Conclusion: The Myth of Myth - 171 Eliade, Mircea / 1907- Campbell, Joseph / 1904- Jung, Carl Gustav / 1875-1961 Eliade, Mircea 1907-1986 Views on politics Campbell, Joseph 1904-1987 Views on politics Jung, C.
