The contributors to the collection are all scholars and teachers in the field of Religious Studies, employing one or more of its methodologies and with a particular interest in the fascinating but complex topic of myth. This is only appropriate, since the nature of myth is inextricably tied to religious belief and practice~in their widest possible definition, to be sure~and these essayists are especially well equipped to illuminate the connection. Here are interpretive paths to what Joseph Campbell's widely~acclaimed public television series (with its accompanying book) has called "the power of myth." The ten original essays and two reprinted reviews assembled in the present anthology contribute informed vantage points on what Campbell meant by that evocative phrase while indicating implications he may have neglected. Contributors: Harold G. Coward, University of Calgary; Wendy Doniger, University of Chicago; William G. Doty, University of Alabama; Christine Downing, San Diego State University; Walter B. Gulick, Eastern Montana College; Karen L. King, Occidental College; Charles H. Long, Syracuse University; David L. MilJer, Syracuse University; Robert A. Segal, Louisiana State University; Lynda Sexson, Montana State University; and Richard A. Underwood, University of North Carolina at Charlotte. …
