Shownotes

Timeless Voyager Radio Series (circa 1995) with guest, Dr. Jonathan Young. Bruce Stephen Holms enters into a very interesting dialog with Dr. Young consisting of many questions regarding his unique association with Joseph Campbell. During the interview there is a discussion of “myth”, mythic stories for therapists, psychology as a bridge between science and non-science, the healing arts, and clinical psychology.

He assisted mythologist Joseph Campbell for several years at seminars. In addition to the Campbell archives, he organized the collections of psychologist James Hillman, and archeologist Marija Gimbutas. As a professor, Young created and chaired the Mythological Studies Department at the Pacifica Graduate Institute, working with Jungian theorists such as Robert Bly, Marion Woodman, Robert A. Johnson, Jean Houston, and Thomas Moore.

In 1995, Dr. Young launched the Center for Story and Symbol in Santa Barbara, California to continue the work of Joseph Campbell. Through the center's programs, he presents seminars internationally on the uses of mythic stories for therapists, writers, clergy, and teachers.
