This review is from: Rituals of the Imagination (Paperback)
This little book contains four lectures Moore gave in Dallas in the early eighties. In it you'll enjoy a refreshing jump into the river of rituals, learn to distinguish myth from mytholoogy (with a little help from Jung), dream of more green in the city, and cultivate some culture with every Medici's favourite philosopher, Ficino (the best of 1462). I'm sure myth lovers and archetypal ponderers will enjoy these little essays full of big ideas as much as I have.
