Enter the Way of the Animal PowersThe first law of life in the animal kingdom -- "to eat, or to be eaten" -- remained for Early Man, the Hunter, the first structuring law of his own address to the world.

The animals become more than sustenance; for such tribes they become mythic neighbors who are part of a covenant where to eat and to be eaten is part of cycle, a sacred bond that gives spiritual shape to the daily struggle -- human and animal -- to survive.Joseph Campbell's multivolume Historical Atlas of World Mythology, his magnum opus, marked the culmination of his brilliant career as scholar, writer, teacher, and one of the foremost interpreters of our most sacred traditions.Campbell described his work as an attempt to tell humankind's "One Great Story" -- our saga of spiritual awakening and the subsequent development of the many different mythological perspectives that have shaped us throughout time.
