A Jungian study of death, rebirth and resurrection in myth, the second of the three volumes in Braziller's Patterns of Myth series (with Charles H. Long's Alpha and Watts's The Two Hands of God). Henderson's introduction, in seven chapters, follows the theme through cosmic pattern, the cycles of nature, initiation and the shaman's magic flight, and includes a case study of a woman confronting her fear of dying. Oakes's anthology follows: more than fifty texts from world myth and scripture, from the Dance of Shiva and the descent of Inanna to Black Elk Speaks, with an appendix of poems by Emily Dickinson, Coleridge and Whitman. Plates include Aztec, Sumerian and Greek sculpture, an Irish bronze Crucifixion, a tarot Death card and the Sorcerer of Trois Freres. Henderson (1903-2007), co-founder of the C. G. Jung Institute of San Francisco, wrote "Ancient Myths and Modern Man" for Jung's Man and His Symbols.
