Description
"Campbell’s Monomyth: The Quest of the Mythic Hero" is a comprehensive introduction to Joseph Campbell's monomyth, its symbolism, metaphors and themes. It explores in detail Campbell's 17 original elements and organizes them into a easily-understandable eight-stage framework. While not specifically a teaching approach, the guide does give you the background, diagrams and charts you need to teach the monomyth at any level. (Please see my preview for full details.)
