đź“š Lecture: "Carl Jung: Myth, Shadow, Underworld"
🎤 Speaker: Dr. Emily Lord-Kambitsch
Join us for an enlightening evening with Dr. Emily Lord-Kambitsch as we explore the powerful concept of myth and its role in navigating personal and collective crises. This lecture will trace the development of Swiss psychologist Carl Jung's approach to personal mythmaking, highlighting how engaging with the unconscious can lead to insight and healing through dialogues with underworld beings.
Dr. Lord-Kambitsch will delve into Jung’s compelling personal narrative and critiques of his own ideas, examining crucial questions: What are the benefits and pitfalls of living in accordance with a personal myth? How can an awareness of our own story patterns empower us to take control of our lives?

She teaches graduate-level seminars on ancient Mediterranean myth, literature, and ritual studies. Her recent research has appeared in notable journals and edited volumes, offering insightful perspectives on the intersections between mythology and psychology.
