| IPTC INFO | | Caption | Editors Robert Bly James Hillman and Michael Meade combined a short Introduction preceeded by these poignant thoughts from William Butler Yeats: "Those masterful images because complete/ Grew in pure mind but out of what began? .Old kettles old bottles... Old iron old bones old rags...I must lie down where all the ladders start In the foul rag-and-bone shop of the heart." __________________________________________ This anthology divided into 16 sections representing aspects of the rites of manhood grows out of Bly and coeditor Michael Meade's presentations to men's support groups of storytelling and poetry. Contributing insightful introductions to each section the editors select more than 300 Jungian-intuitive poems more effectively heard aloud by such writers as Lorca Neruda Ponge Rilke and Vallejo. These writers are receptive to the archetypal wisdom of the unconscious "that vision which is the ground of all initiations." Shopworn anthology pieces like "Miniver Cheevy" don't capture "moments when we feel outside time seized by a longing" as effectively as works by unfamiliar authors Olav H. Hauge Gyula Illyes Haki Madhubuti Heinz Pasman songs of primitive peoples and dreamlike prose excerpts expressing the conflicting emotions that comprise a man's New Age identity. - Frank Allen West Virginia State Coll.
