Sinopse

In "The Mountainy Singer," Joseph Campbell delves into the rich tapestry of myth, exploring the connections between storytelling and the human experience. Written in a lyrical prose style that weaves together personal anecdote with philosophical reflection, the book transcends conventional narrative forms, inviting readers to engage deeply with the archetypes that define cultures across time and space. Through vivid imagery and evocative language, Campbell examines the universal themes of heroism, transformation, and the search for meaning, set against the backdrop of various mythic traditions. Joseph Campbell, a preeminent scholar of mythology, synthesized his extensive knowledge of diverse cultural narratives into this profound work. Drawing from his early pursuits in comparative mythology and literature, Campbell sought to illuminate the timeless truths embedded in legends and tales. His experiential journey in the realm of myth informed his belief in their power to shape individual lives and societal frameworks, making "The Mountainy Singer" a crucial contribution to his legacy. I wholeheartedly recommend "The Mountainy Singer" to anyone interested in the profound impact of mythology on personal and collective identity. Campbell's insights resonate with both the intellectual and the emotional, making this work an essential read for scholars and laypersons alike who seek to understand the deeper currents that guide human behavior and belief.

    BERLIN, 1932
    Intelligent, artistic and precocious, fourteen-year-old Sophie Riedesel dreams of nothing more than becoming an actress and spending time with her beloved Jewish neighbour, Isaac Zarco. But when her father and boyfriend become Nazi collaborators and Hitler's meteoric rise to power gathers momentum, she is forced to lead a double life to protect those closest to her.
    Invited by Isaac into the Ring, a secret circle of underground activists working against the government, Sophie soon learns the ways of espionage and subterfuge.
