Mythological Studies Student Journal
A Letter from the Editor:
Dear Readers,
Welcome to Volume 3 of the Mythological Studies Journal, featuring writings by students enrolled in the Mythological Studies MA/PhD program at Pacifica Graduate Institute. These writers include students currently enrolled in course work as well as those working on their dissertations. The eight articles in our third volume represent a variety of views and approaches on subjects that are ostensibly religious in nature but are viewed from a depth psychological perspective and take us on a journey that is mythic in nature. These articles are not intended to convey a single view point, but rather a starting point for a greater conversation. I hope that the reader will find them to be provocative, entertaining and most of all see that what we all many times take for granted can be viewed with freshness and newness. Many thanks are due to the staff of this Editorial Board: Lauren Howard, Kerri Grant, and Karin Zirk, and to our faculty advisor Dr. Dennis Patrick Slattery. I am extremely appreciative of the time and effort that all of the staff and faculty have contributed to this publication; and to all of the authors and peer reviewers – thank you for all of your hard work and contributions.
Sincerely,
Fujio Mandeville
Editor-in-Chief
