Mythologies by Jack Adams
by Jack Adams
Welcome to Mythologies Podcast where the expansion of imagination and perception is never limited by mythology but enhanced by its understanding. We all love mythology, what is there not to like about a good story but are we missing the best story? The history and process of mythology is an epic saga as big as human history and a cracking tale all of its own. How can we tell what is myth and what is history? Are we operating our own mythologies and if so why, how and where? How do we develop a method to examine mythologies? If you like to think for yourself then this is definitely for you.
