This bundle includes the ebook editions of The Mythopoetic Impulse: Selected Essays 2017-2022 and Pathways to Bliss: A Skeleton Key Study Guide, both by Bradley Olson, PhD.

The essays in The Mythopoetic Impulse first appeared in the Joseph Campbell Foundation’s weekly MythBlast newsletter. In them, Brad brings his expertise as a therapist and mythologist to the exploration of myth as it intersects with psychology, literature, art, and culture studies. You’ll discover how each domain lends understanding to the others, and how this reciprocity enables a deeper relationship to beauty, to the fascinating mysteries of existence, to nobility and creativity — in short, to life itself.

Pathways to Bliss: A Skeleton Key Study Guide is a companion volume to Joseph Campbell's book Pathways to Bliss: Mythology and Personal Transformation. The study guide summarizes and amplifies Campbell's views about the psychological aspects of mythology. Inside you'll find quotes, reading suggestions, discussion topics, and creative prompts to help deepen your experience of Campbell's ideas.
