Jacquelyn Mann will lead us in a discussion of The Heroine with 1001 Faces by Maria Tatar. From Amazon: "The Heroine with 1,001 Faces dismantles the cult of warrior heroes, revealing a secret history of heroinism at the very heart of our collective cultural imagination. Maria Tatar, a leading authority on fairy tales and folklore, explores how heroines, rarely wielding a sword and often deprived of a pen, have flown beneath the radar even as they have been bent on redemptive missions. Deploying the domestic crafts and using words as weapons, they have found ways to survive assaults and rescue others from harm, all while repairing the fraying edges in the fabric of their social worlds. Like the tongueless Philomela, who spins the tale of her rape into a tapestry, or Arachne, who portrays the misdeeds of the gods, they have discovered instruments for securing fairness in the storytelling circles where so-called women’s work—spinning, mending, and weaving—is carried out." Please join us for an engaging discussion even if you don't have the opportunity to read the book.

Jacquelyn Mann shares: I completed my masters in social work over 30 years ago. While working on my master’s degree, I rediscovered Jung. Fifteen years ago, while living overseas, I was fortunate enough to attend a week-long training at the C. G. Jung Zurich Institute.
