Description
The Ecstatic and the Archaic: An Analytical Psychological Inquiry by Paul Bishop and Leslie Gardner explores the relationship between ancient and modern worlds. This edited collection examines how the past continues to manifest itself in the present, tracing the presence of ecstasy amidst the archaic. The book is presented in three parts, each tackling the concept of the archaic from a unique perspective. Part I delves into the psychological aspects of ecstasy, while Part II considers historical figures such as Ludwig Klages and Orestes and Dionysus. The final part examines ancient myths and legends from different cultures. This collection will appeal to readers interested in the intersection of ancient and modern thought, particularly those studying Jungian and post-Jungian ideas, classical religions, and the history of ideas.
