The Hero Within: Six Archetypes We Live By (Revised & Expanded Edition) by Carol S Pearson
In this newly revised edition of the bestselling classic The Hero Within, Carol S. Pearson gives us a unique vocabulary to explore the link between ancient archetypes and our contemporary lives. Works like Joseph Campbell's The Hero With a Thousand Faces have introduced readers to the significance of myth and archetype in our lives. Carol Pearson's bestselling The Hero Within takes us further by combining literature, anthropology, and psychology to clearly define with insight and understanding, the six heroic archetypes that exists in all of us: the Innocent, the Orphan, the Wanderer, the Warrior, the Martyr, and the Magician. This substantially revised edition features new chapters that illuminate these archetypes, showing how to reach our fullest potential by achieving a balance between work, family, and the self.
'An excellent and useful book about the course our psychological development can take.. .it is an evolutionary archetypal psychology.' Jean Shinoda Bolen, M.D., author of Goddesses in Everywoman and Gods in Everyman
Carol S. Pearson, Ph.D., is the author of many bestselling and respected works on archetypes and the president of CASA: the Centre for Archetypal Studies and Applications. She lives and works in Washington DC.
