Waking The Shadow: Part II

By Frank Prem

. . . if you save me I will love you

is that not a good and fair bargain

Joseph Campbell, the great mythologist of the twentieth century, explored and interpreted the enduring patterns of myth - from the Hero's Journey to the many masks through which human experience is expressed. His work revealed the deeper meanings embedded in everyday life.

Frank Prem continues his poetic engagement with Campbell's ideas, extending the dialogue begun in Part I. Drawn from a close reading of his essays and lectures, these poems do not explain so much as respond - allowing ideas to unfold, intersect, and resonate across a broader imaginative landscape.

Waking The Shadow: Part II completes the first volume of the series, carrying the conversation outward - into shared experience, cultural reflection, and the evolving relationship between personal insight and the wider world.
