'Joseph Campbell famously defined myth as :other people's religion." But he also said that one of the basic functions of myth is to help each individual through the journey oflife, providing a sort of travel guide or map to reach fulfillment--or, as he called it, bliss....In Pathways to Bliss, Campbell examines this personal, psychological side of myth.'
