Beschreibung

<p>Robert Bly writes that it is clear to men that the images of adult manhood given by popular culture are worn out, that a man can no longer depend on them. <i>Iron John</i> searches for a new vision of what a man is or could be, drawing on psychology, anthropology, mythology, folklore and legend. Robert Bly looks at the importance of the Wild Man (reminiscent of the Wild Woman in <i>Women Who Run With the Wolves</i>), who he compares to a Zen priest, a shaman or a woodman.</p><p>'This book needs to be read, I believe, not as a dry work of scholarship to be judged coolly by the mind, but as the work of a poet struggling to convey an emotional experience and lead us to what he has found within himself' <i>Guardian</i></p><p>'Eclectic and unclassifiable. <i>Iron John</i> is a work whose mentors are the prophetic poets and crazies, William Blake and Walt Whitman' <i>Sydney Morning Herald</i></p><p>'Important.[...] powerful' <i>New York Times</i></p>
