The cry for myth / Rollo May.
An examination of myths as they are immediately present in the consciousness and unconsciousness of contemporary living people in the West. May traces myths--Classical Greece, Dante's Middle Ages, European legend, and contemporary American life--and relates them to the dreams and associations he encounters in his practice as a psychotherapist.
