Joseph Campbell’s seminal four-volume work, The Masks of God, offers a comprehensive comparative study of world mythology. This foundational text explores the universal themes and archetypal symbols that define human spiritual history, tracing the evolution of religious thought from primitive origins to modern psychological interpretations. It remains a cornerstone of mythological scholarship, synthesizing anthropology, history, and psychology to examine the shared narrative structures of diverse global cultures.
