《神話的力量》引發了人們對約瑟夫·坎伯及其作品的巨大關注。作為一位卓越的學者、作家和教師，他對數百萬人產生了深遠的影響，其中包括《星際大戰》的創作者喬治·盧卡斯。對坎伯而言，神話是「宇宙之歌，天體之樂」。在美國最知名記者之一比爾·莫耶斯深思熟慮且引人入勝的訪談中，《神話的力量》觸及了從現代婚姻到處女生子、從耶穌到約翰·藍儂等主題，展現了智慧與機智的絕妙結合。
從古希臘羅馬的神祇故事，到佛教、印度教和基督教的傳統，本書探討了廣泛的主題，共同揭示了人類經驗在時間與文化中的普遍性。作為訪談者與受訪者的完美搭配，以及坎伯作品的永恆精華，《神話的力量》持續對我們的文化產生深遠影響。
I’ve been rereading the conversations in here about myth and storytelling, and it’s remarkable how Campbell’s ideas still feel urgent decades later. The chapter on the hero’s journey alone is worth the price, and the prose flows like a late-night conversation you don’t want to end.
Bought this after a podcast mentioned Campbell, and now I'm reading a chapter each night before bed. The conversations with Bill Moyers feel so alive on the page that I keep catching myself nodding along.
This edition's binding feels sturdy enough for the coffee table, and the conversations between Campbell and Moyers read like late-night talks with a brilliant friend. It's made me see my own creative work in a completely new light, and I keep picking it up again.
