Hero's Journey Decoded: Carl Jung vs Joseph Campbell
Joseph Campbell's "The Hero with a Thousand Faces" is a book which tries to link all the stories in the world together, and in this video I will look at this narrative framework, examine how it compares to Carl Jung's ideas, and explain what makes it good, and what the issues are with it.
I also want to thank @Crowhag for her input, it was especially useful in this video.
