Ah, when you suggest as you do that Campbell was ignorant, I see a preconceived agenda here. I have had professors (one of whom you have also suggested was ignorant) from Harvard, Cambridge and Stanford among other extremely prestigious universities revered for their classics and near eastern studies departments, and none of them have disparaged Campbell as ignorant. Truly, the man knew more about myth and spirit than anyone known to us yet. That "sterile" professor from Harvard counted him as one of the few truly great thinkers in the field of mythology in the past 100 years.
I read primary sources very well, thank you. So did Campbell, and with more knowledge than either of us have. Do you truly think you have a grasp on a myth or soul concept Campbell did not grok? Goodness. Animus animaque hic fiunt fastus!
