Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Joseph Campbell and the Power of Myth is essential viewing for anyone old enough to appreciate its vital teachings. One of the greatest interviews ever recorded, this six-part, six-hour encounter between teacher- mythologist Campbell and student-journalist Bill Moyers (recorded in the two years preceding Campbell's death in 1988) covers a galaxy of topics related to Campbell's central themes: Mythology is humanity's universal method of seeking the transcendental, and 'follow your bliss' is the timeless formula for spiritual satisfaction. Campbell himself is the embodiment of these themes, an erudite scholar and quintessential storyteller, recalling a wide spectrum of myths from throughout history (Japanese, Native American, Egyptian, Mayan, and many more) to illustrate humankind's eternal quest to grasp the mysteries of creation. Historical artifacts and illustrations bring these timeless stories to life.
An astute interviewer, Moyers is an acolyte in perfect harmony with Campbell-as- mentor, wording questions with penetrating perfection as their intellectual dance reaches exhilarating heights of meaning and fascination. Moyers also finds the perfect hook for a global audience, examining Campbell's admiration of George Lucas's Star Wars saga as a popular tapestry of ancient myths, and Lucas himself is interviewed in a DVD bonus segment ('I'm not creating a new myth,' he says, 'but telling old myths in a new way'). Campbell's seemingly endless well of knowledge reaches a simple conclusion: we need myths to survive like we need oxygen to breathe, as a life force with which to understand our existence--past, present, and future. --Jeff Shannon

In 1986, journalist Bill Moyers sat down with mythologist Joseph Campbell for a series of interviews taped at George Lucas' Skywalker Ranch. The sessions, which aired on PBS in '88 (see Bill Moyers Remembers Joseph Campbell), introduced Campbell's transcendental wisdom to a wide audience for the first time. Joseph Campbell And The Power Of Myth became a bestseller in both book and video form.

Joseph Campbell was the leading authority on mythology and Bill Moyers picks his brain very well on this video collection. It is fascinating to hear how stories from different cultures, places and ages are really all the same story just with different cultural context. I stronly recommend this title to everyone.

In our post modern era, we have slowly lost touch with myth and ritual. Myth and ritual are two ways in which we are reminded that we are all the same and that we are connected to a much deeper mystery. This series of interviews between Joseph Campbell and Bill Moyers is a gem to be treasured. Bill Moyers always asking the cutting edge questions is at the top of his game during these interviews. A must see for anyone on a quest for your own spirit and the spirit of the world.
