The road to Daulis : psychoanalysis, psychology, and classical mythology

Author:Robert Eisner

 

The Road to Daulis is the first book-length study of the uses and abuses of classical mythology in psychoanalysis and psychology. Eisner covers the whole range of such uses made of nine selected classical myths, including Oedipus, Electra, Daimon, Dionysus, Apollo, Eros, and Psyche; however, he argues no particular ideology or theoretical approach. This book introduces the reader to the myths and to the sometimes hilarious interpretations inflicted on them by Freud, Jung, and many others. It fills in the appropriate historical and literary backgrounds and suggests the ways that myth and analysis can illuminate each other if both are taken with respect but without blind devotion.

Contents:
Oedipus and his kind
The afterbirth
Electra and other monsters
Daimon and Archetype
Dionysus
Apollo and his boys
The great mothers
The hero and the quest
Eros and Psyche
Myth, therapy, and culture
