Joseph Campbell - Mythos I

Aroview: This series comprises the lectures of mythologist Joseph Campbell, filmed shortly before his death and presented here by Susan Sarandon.

The five programmes cover Campbell's theories on the meaning of myths in various societies, including the western world, and the psychological sources of our myth-making instincts. The quality of the series is heightened by a commitment to presenting the lectures largely unedited and in the order Campbell intended, making this a dependable resource for those exploring the "one great story" of humanity.
