#EL VIAJE DEL HÉROE JOSEPH CAMPBELL SERIES#
The second was Bill Moyers's series of seminal interviews with Campbell, released in 1988 as the documentary (and companion book) The Power of Myth. The first, released in 1987, The Hero's Journey: The World of Joseph Campbell, was accompanied by a 1990 companion book, The Hero's Journey: Joseph Campbell on His Life and Work (with Phil Cousineau and Stuart Brown, eds.). The phrase "the hero's journey", used in reference to Campbell's monomyth, first entered into popular discourse through two documentaries. Omry Ronen referred to Vyacheslav Ivanov's treatment of Dionysus as an "avatar of Christ" (1904) as "Ivanov's monomyth". Campbell's singular the monomyth implies that the "hero's journey" is the ultimate narrative archetype, but the term monomyth has occasionally been used more generally, as a term for a mythological archetype or a supposed mytheme that re-occurs throughout the world's cultures. Campbell was a notable scholar of Joyce's work and in A Skeleton Key to Finnegans Wake (1944) co-authored the seminal analysis of Joyce's final novel.
According to Robert Segal, "The theories of Rank, Campbell, and Raglan typify the array of analyses of hero myths." Terminology Ĭampbell borrowed the word monomyth from James Joyce's Finnegans Wake (1939). Both have lists of different cross-cultural traits often found in the accounts of heroes, including mythical heroes. In narratology and comparative mythology, others have proposed narrative patterns such as psychoanalyst Otto Rank in 1909 and amateur anthropologist Lord Raglan in 1936. The study of hero myth narratives can be traced back to 1871 with anthropologist Edward Burnett Tylor's observations of common patterns in the plots of heroes' journeys.
Įarlier figures had proposed similar concepts, including psychologist Otto Rank and amateur anthropologist Lord Raglan, who discuss hero narrative patterns in terms of Freudian psychoanalysis and ritualism.

Una obra maestra de quien ha sido considerado el mitógrafo más importante de los tiempos modernos. Con su característico ingenio e intuición, Campbell ilustra la relación existente entre los antiguos símbolos y el arte moderno, o entre la esquizofrenia y el viaje del héroe (en el sentido junguiano), poniendo de relieve el modo en que el mito nos ayuda a identificar nuestro propio viaje. En este sentido, los mitos se tornan en genuinos caminos a la felicidad. En este libro, Campbell hace gala de su extraordinaria pericia como contador de historias para sumergirnos en las mitologías del mundo y destapar su poderosa capacidad de incidir en nuestra transformación y desarrollo personal. En su opinión, una de las funciones básicas del mito (en especial de su dimensión psicológica) consiste en ayudar al individuo a llevar a cabo su viaje vital, proporcionándole una guía para alcanzar la plenitud, un mapa para descubrir la «felicidad». Joseph Campbell ha sido uno de los grandes divulgadores de la sabiduría profunda que atesoran los mitos.
