Dark Voices focuses on the voice's special relationship to soul and gives a sense of what a heightened awareness of this relationship can bring to contemporary performers and individuals. Noah Pikes has assembled for the first time a narrative which traces not only the stories of Alfred Wolfsohn and Roy Hart-modernist pioneers in voice and theater respectively-but also a cast of characters who made up Roy Hart Theatre in the 60s and 70s. In addition, everyone from C.G. Jung to Harold Pinter to John Cleese makes important cameo appearances. This is the first book on the vision and use of the human voice as a mirror of the psyche.

Spring 73 Cinema & Psyche: A Journal of Achievement and Culture

Through myth, fairy tales, case studies, and Jungian psychology, best-selling author Maureen Murdock explores the unique relationship between a "father's daughter" and her father, its rewards and pitfalls, and how this idealized relationship affects the mother-daughter bond. This rich analysis examines Beauty and the Beast, Donkeyskin, The Wizard of Oz, King Lear, and The Handless Maiden to help empower the father's daughter to untangle the ties that bind her to her father and redeem a female vision that is powerful and nurturing.

Patricia Reis examines how the father-daughter relationship effects a woman's creative life. First describing the mythology of Saturn-the archetypal devouring and melancholic father-she then matches Saturn's mythological daughters-Hestia, Demeter, Hera, and Aprodite-with four modern women writers-Emily Dickinson, H.D., (Hilda Doolittle), Sylvia Plath, and Anais Nin-and uses these stories, as well as the dreams and stories of other contemporary women, to reveal a path women can follow outside the realm of the fathers to a woman-centered ground of creative authority.

This intensely personal account of the little written-about sacred dimension of menopause combines religious studies with psychology to understand menopause as soul-event . regarding its symptoms as symbols and provides insight into what this transition can be like for those women who choose to embrace it as a meaningful part of their lives. Downing explores menopause as a rite of passage and reveals her own inner and outer journey through this process, using a trip she took to India when she turned 50 to mark the occasion. She shares with her sisters the lessons learned on the journey: the discovery that I was done with the heroic quest, the acceptance of weakness and vulnerability, the recognition of my dependence on other women, the revelation that I am loved enough.

Lionel Corbett describes an approach to spirituality based on personal experience of the sacred rather than on pre-existing religious dogmas. Using many examples from Corbett's psychotherapy practice and other personal accounts, the book describes various portals through which the sacred may appear: in dreams, visions, the natural world, through the body, in relationships, in our psychopathology, and in our creative work. Using the language and insights of depth psychology, he describes the intimate relationship between spiritual experience and the psychology of the individual, revealing the seamless continuity and intermingling of the personal and transpersonal dimensions of the psyche. Corbett also discusses the problems of evil and suffering from a psychological rather than theological perspective, and suggests some of the reasons that traditional religious institutions fail to address adequately these problems. Based largely on Jung's writing on religion, b!ut also drawing from contemporary psychoanalyticheory, Corbett describes an approach to spirituality that is gradually emerging alongside the western monotheistic tradition. For those seeking alternative forms of spirituality beyond the Judeo-Christian tradition, this volume will be a useful guide on the journey.
