10.2.25 | Rafael Lopez-Pedraza | Dionysus in Exile | Free Reading Discussion
The internationally renowned Jungian analyst Lopez-Pedraza diagnoses the psychological illness at the core of modern society–the loss of embodied soulfulness in individual’s lives. In this study of the Greek god Dionysus, he offers insight for a cure. Dismemberment and cannibalism, Prometheus and Titanic nature, mystical experience, the communal aspect of Dionysiac worship, jazz, flamenco, and bullfighting are among the many twists and turns taken in this essay that winds its way through issues of the body and emotion to open hidden doors for psychotherapy and to cast new light on post-modern humanity.
Join the C.G. Jung Library of Tampa Bay Reading Discussion Group for what can be considered the second part of a close study of the wily and temperamental god Dionysus, following September’s discussion of The Bacchae of Euripides. Register for one or both discussions!
