About Joseph Campbell
Joseph Campbell (1904–1987) was an American mythologist, writer, and lecturer best known for his works on comparative mythology and religion. His influential book, "The Hero with a Thousand Faces," introduced the concept of the monomyth, or the Hero's Journey, which outlines a universal narrative structure found in myths across cultures. Campbell's insights have profoundly impacted literature, psychology, and film, inspiring creators like George Lucas in the development of the Star Wars saga.
