(Please forgive the duplicate post if this appears twice in your newsfeed; Facebooks algorithm limits the number of people who can see an update with a link in it unless we pay a huge fee – huge for us, anyway – so with this repost the link will be in the first comment to follow the update) Joseph Campbells multivolume Historical Atlas of World Mythology, his magnum opus, marked the culmination of his brilliant career as scholar, writer, teacher, and one of the foremost interpreters of our most sacred traditions. Though never completed during Campbells lifetime, Joseph Campbell Foundation (JCF) plans to make all of the existing work available—and possibly to release additional volumes – in a series of E-Singles as each section of this massive work is completed. JCF is pleased to announce the next installment in the release of the Historical Atlas of World Mythology — Digital Edition. Here Joseph Campbell explores the mythologies and cultures of the hunting-gathering tribes of the equatorial rain forests. Focusing on the particular myths and rituals of tribes from Central Africa, the Indian Ocean, and the Pacific, Campbell looks at the ways in which these tribes myths are similar, the ways in which they are distinct, and what that tells us about these cultures and the jungle environment in which they live. Download The Living Peoples of the Tropical Forest as our thank you when you donate at least $2.99 to JCF. (Link is in the first comment that follows)
