Riassunto

Walt Whitman: Shamanism, Spiritual Democracy, and the World Soul begins with a dream that sent the author, Steven B. Herrmann, on a journey to analyze the "shamanic structures" of the collective unconscious that are present in the poetry and prose of America's greatest bard, Walt Whitman. From a contemporary, analytical psychological point of view, Herrmann demonstrates how Whitman speaks to age-old sociopolitical and religious questions that are highly relevant to our world today. The book discusses topics including: · Whitman's Emergence as a World-Liberating Figure · The Three Stages of American Democracy · Bi-Erotic Marriage · Whitman's Religious Vision Based on extensive research into the roots of the American mythos, this book will be essential reading for literary, political, religious, and psychological studies. Steven B. Herrmann is a Jungian writer and psychotherapist and lives with his wife in the hills of Oakland, California.
