The Knight

THE KNIGHT is written in the style of Psycho-Mythology, a creative kind of union between fiction and psychological fact. Psycho-Mythology is a literature in which an individuals fantasy transcends the personal level, reaching the collective unconscious. Spiegelman had used Jungs method of inner dialogue and Active Imagination for fourteen years, when one day there was a quantum jump for him, and as he put it: The work was no longer merely for my own enlightenment and development, but suddenly took on the possibility of social usefulness. Henry Miller (1891-1980) the author of Tropic of Cancer and numerous other works of major stature, felt: It is the quintessence of all ones spiritual experiences. Israel Regardie (1907-1985) the western worlds foremost authority on higher consciousness states: Spiegelman deals symbolically with the process of individuation, the growth to be ONESELF, the movement Godward.
