1st printing. By Steven A. Galipeau. An analysis of modern myth and symbol. Jungian analyst Galipeau believes that the story of Star Wars speaks to our deepest psychological and spiritual dilemmas. From Leia's domination by Darth Vader (the feminine/masculine pairing) to the introduction of The Force (a parallel of Jung's collective unconscious), from the Ewoks (nature and instinct), to the Stormtroopers (soulless technology), Galipeau shows how and why the movies' themes and conflicts mirror our own. Includes 12 black-and-white illustrations. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 300 pages, Text (with B&W Chapter Illustrations). Cover price $19.95.
