The origins and character of world mythologies. This survey course explores the archetypal stories by which human consciousness shapes a sense of order and belonging in the natural and supernatural worlds. Emphasis will be given to the Shaman as storyteller, as living bridge between two worlds, as healer and shaper of community and culture.
