the heroine s journey maureen murdock

The Heroine’s Journey describes contemporary woman’s search for wholeness in a society where she has been defined according to masculine values. Drawing on cultural myths and fairy tales, ancient symbols and goddesses, and the dreams of contemporary women, Murdock illustrates the need for—and the reality of—feminine values in Western culture. This special anniversary edition, with a new foreword by Christine Downing and preface by the author, illuminates that this need is just as relevant today as it was when the book was originally published thirty years ago.

Cyklický proces hledání použitelné, naplňující, moderní ženské identity nás provází po celý život. Slavná, stále znovu vydávaná kniha o této pouti, obohacená mnoha konkrétními příběhy, pracuje s jungovskými archetypy, mýty a sny. Zabývá se redefinováním ženské identity poté, co žena („hrdinka“) prošla identifikací s mužskou stránkou své osobnosti a má potřebu integrovat obě své součásti do autentického celku. Cesta je rozdělena do několika fází: odmítnutí stereotypního ženství coby závislého, kontrolujícího a plného zuřivosti, ponoření do povědomé „cesty hrdinky“ s pomocí mužských spojenců, jejímž cílem je získat nezávislost, úspěch, peníze, prestiž, moc a úspěch, „období sucha“ následované sestupem do hlubin za hledáním temnější stránky ženství. Z toho vyplývá pochopení potřeby vyléčení nesouladu mezi matkou a dcerou, nové určení a ověření ženských dovedností a jejich integrace s mužskou stránkou z dřívější fáze cesty.Maureen Murdock je americká psycholožka, terapeutka a vysokoškolská profesorka. Napsala několik dalších knih na téma ženské identity.

Calling to mind Basho¯’s late life journeys through the backcountry of Japan, two women poets in a well-worn Honda hit the road for a legendary pilgrimage in a far-flung (pre-pandemic) landscape of American poetry.Although a road trip across North American calls to mind Jack Kerouac’s youthful meanderings of self-discovery, this reading tour was more in the manner of Basho¯’s late life journeys through the backcountry of Japan. . . . The road trip was in a sense a pilgrimage of reengagement with their calling as poets, and a chance to reacquaint with like-minded friends, old and new, in a far-flung landscape of American poetry. Venues would include upscale bookstores, coffee houses, museums, legendary used bookstores, botanical gardens, university classrooms, art centers, and artist coops—in short, a unique sampling of poetry environments tracing an arc across the Southern States, the Southwest, and up the West Coast before hooking back to the Rockies. Framed as a personal challenge, the poets hit the road much in the manner of itinerant preachers and musicians, lodging at discount motels, funky hostels, Airbnbs, and with friends along the way. Adding a social media touch, Maureen and Barbara created a blog of their tour so that friends, ... Unknown localization key: "more"

This second title in the new, pocket-size Joseph Campbell Essentials series presents the mythologist’s most quotable writings on the universal path of adventure, transformation, and return, exploring the world’s enduring myths and beckoning us to embrace our own hero’s journey with courage and insight. Rediscover the timeless story that shapes all of us in On the Hero’s Journey, an accessible introduction to one of the most influential ideas in storytelling, from world-renowned mythologist Joseph Campbell. Part of a new, beautifully designed series on Campbell’s core motifs, this pocket-size gem offers a deeper understanding of how the stories we tell shape our lives. Campbell recognized the hero’s journey to be the “monomyth,” the universal pattern found in lore, legends, and rituals across cultures — from ancient texts to contemporary films. Whether our hero is battling dragons or confronting inner demons, the adventure unfolds in three stages — Separation, Initiation, and Return — and draws from the collective unconscious to mirror the cycles of cultural evolution and the journey of the soul itself. As Campbell writes, “Each time, there is the same problem: Do I dare?” With every call to adventure, the hero faces both the potential for bliss and the threat ... Unknown localization key: "more"

In THE GIFTED PARENTING JOURNEY, clinical psychologist and parent Dr. Gail Post addresses the needs and emotional life of parents of gifted children. Gifted children can be overwhelming; parents must navigate a maze of heightened intensity, asynchronous development, and astonishing intellectual abilities. These challenges and the emotions they evoke are not always easy to discuss with friends or professionals unfamiliar with giftedness.

With an Introduction and Notes by Professor Roger Cardinal. University of Kent at Canterbury.Translationsare by Paul Desages (Around the World in Eighty Days) and Arthur Chambers (Five Weeks in a Balloon).JULES VERNE (1828-1905) POSSESSED that rare storyteller''s gift of being able to present the far-fetched and the downright unbelievable in such a way as effortlessly to inspire his reader''s allegiance and trust. This volume contains two of his best-loved yarns, chosen from among the sixty-four titles of Les Voyages Extraordinaires, Verne''s pioneering contribution to the canon of modern science fiction.Around the World in Eighty Days (1873) relates the hair-raising journey made as a wager by the Victorian gentleman Phileas Fogg, who succeeds - but only just! - in circling the globe within eighty days. The dour Fogg''s obsession with his timetable is complemented by the dynamism and versatility of his French manservant, Passepartout, whose talent for getting into scrapes brings colour and suspense to the race against time.Five Weeks in a Balloon (1863) was Verne''s first novel. It documents an apocryphal jaunt across the continent of Africa in a hydrogen balloon designed by the omniscient, imperturbable and ever capable Dr Fergusson, the prototype of the Vernian adventurer.
