The Collected Lectures to Spotlight Rare Campbell Print | Email
For this release, we went digging deeper into the archives to offer a little-heard talk that will be less familiar to Campbell aficionados. Lecture II.1.1 - The Function of Mythology, is the first in a second series of lectures and is comprised of a stirring talk that Campbell gave to start off an immersive workshop at the Esalen Institute in 1967 on the theme of 'World Mythology and the Individual Adventure.'
Unlike the Series I lectures, which have previously been widely available in the form of the HighBridge Audio cassettes and CD's throughout the nineties, this and subsequent Series II releases represent rarer material, some of which has never before been released. In the months to come, we shall be offering the subsequent talks given by Campbell throughout that 1967 Esalen workshop, providing a rare opportunity to experience a taste of what it might have been like to spend a week of mythological exploration with Joe on the beautiful Pacific Ocean.
Joining Lecture II.1.1 in the Spring release are the next two Series I lectures, moving us closer to completing the digital re-release of Series I, Volume 2: Inward Journey: East and West.

What myth does for you is to point beyond the phenomenal field toward the transcendent. A mythic figure is like the compass that you used to draw circles and arcs in school, with one leg in the field of time and the other in the eternal. The image of a god may look like a human or animal form, but its reference is transcendent of that. Joseph Campbell
