Publisher's Summary

In this BetterListen Classic Course, recorded in NYC in 1989, Robert A. Johnson, the celebrated author of He, She, and We, revisits two medieval tales and illuminates how this feeling function has become a casualty of our modern times.

Johnson tells the story of the Wounded Fisher King from the Grail Myth to illustrate the anxiety and loneliness that plague men. From the folktale of the Handless Maiden, he explains the very different frustrations of women and describes how these disparities in the way we suffer account for much of the tension and miscommunication between men and women. His insightful analysis shows that these two stories, created centuries ago, are even more relevant today.

This classic from our archives is sure to spark insight and intrigue and shed light on the psyche of men and women.

A lost talk

This is a lovely talk by Robert Johnson marred only by the poor recording quality probably caused by the age of the recording- it is from 1989. Nevertheless a worthwhile listen for those interested in Jung, gender and mythology. It is a product of its time be warned. But it is worthwhile.

The Real Wounds of Men & Women

A timeless story told by the wounded master storyteller and Jungian analyst. Further reading is required to bring everything together. If you found this work then you have probably read his other works such as He, She & We.
