Dr. Jekyll ist ein guter, mitfühlender und zivilisierter Mensch. Immer wieder aber ergreift die dunkle, triefhafte Persönlichkeit des Dr. Hyde von ihm Besitz. Robert Bly sieht in dieser anderen Persönlichkeit die Schattenseite des Menschen, den C. G. Jung den „Schatten“ nennt. Unser ganzes Leben schleppen wir einen großen Sack hinter uns her, beladen mit den Teilen unseres Selbst, die weder unsere Eltern noch die Gesellschaft und schließlich auch wir selbst nicht annehmen wollen, beladen mit Aggression und unterdrückten Trieben. Er kommt zu dem Schluss, dass wir in diesen unbekannten und unterdrückten Teil der Psyche eintauchen müssen, um unser Leben zu ändern. Wir müssen die Hexe und den Riesen wieder zu einem Teil unseres Selbst machen.

Robert Bly, americký básník, esejista a autor „Železného Jana“ v této útlé knížce shromáždil svá čtení z let 1971 a 1983 věnovaná jungovskému konceptu stínu, která doplňuje rozhovor s Boothem a esej o poezii Wallace Stevense. Společným motivem všech pěti kapitol je právě stín, o němž Bly mluví jako o „dlouhém pytli, který vlečeme za sebou“. Nezkoumá ho jazykem analytické psychologie, nýbrž jazykem básnickým, a pomocí barvitých obrazů a příběhů ukazuje, co dělat, abychom získali zpátky energii, kterou jsme do tohoto pytle odložili a zabránili tak i jejímu zneužívání. „To, co básnická čtení Roberta Blye ve skutečnosti říkají, je: ‚Musíte změnit svůj život.‘ Slyšet tak závažné básně a odolat veškeré změně je horší věc než ztráta času; je to nebezpečné.“ Takto Knížku o lidském stínu uvádí její editor William Booth.

Originally published in 1976, with more than 75,000 copies in print, this collection of poems by fifteenth-century ecstatic poet Kabir is full of fun and full of thought. Columbia University professor of religion John Stratton Hawley has contributed an introduction that makes clear Kabir's immense importance to the contemporary reader and praises Bly's intuitive translations.By making every reader consider anew their religious thinking, the poems of Kabir seem as relevant today as when they were first written.

Autoři společnými silami, třebaže každý zvlášť, rozluštili v metafoře zakódované tajemství našich vnitřních světů. Předestírají před námi pohádku jako návod k nalezení ztracené rovnováhy mezi ženským a mužským elementem našeho já. Ruští bohatýři a zlé baby jagy jako tajemné pochody našeho podvědomí? Došli jsme v naší západní kultuře k bodu, kdy ženy už tolik nemilují muže? Proč by mělo být jedno pohlaví obdařeno větším dílem lásky než druhé? Oba autoři se snaží nahlédnout pod povrch věcí.

Robert Bly's ground-breaking anthology of spiritual poems, the result of over a decade of personal research, celebrates the ongoing role of the divine in literature. For as long as people have lived together in communities and built enduring cultures, they have sung and written about their relationship with the god or gods they believed in. In the words of the Irish writer Sean O'Faolain, "all good writing in the end is the writer's argument with God." The Soul Is Here For Its Own Joy gathers poems from a wide range of cultures and traditions and divides them into ten parts, each forming a resonant exploration of a specific and timeless spiritual question. Selections include the work of Dante, Dogen, Goethe, Hafez, Juan Ramon Jimenez, Kabir, Lalla, Li Po, Mirabai, Mary Oliver, Owl Woman, Rainer Maria Rilke, and Rumi, in addition to Blake, Dickinson, Donne, Hopkins, Stevens, Yeats, and other important English and American poets. Together these poems form both a celebration and a quest--a kind of pilgrim's progress that embraces all the rich wisdom of East and West, ancient and modern, male and female, spirit and flesh.

Where have all the grownups gone? In answering that question with the same freewheeling erudition and intuitive brilliance that made Iron John a national bestseller, poet, storyteller and translator Robert Bly tells us that we live in a "sibling society, " in which adults have regressed into adolescence and adolescents refuse to grow up.

"Few major achievements of world literature are as little known to Americans as the great ecstatic poetry of the Hindus and Sufis, as exemplified by the work of the 15th century master, Kabir. Irreverent while being intensely religious, Kabir seems incredibly playful in his taunting of the sacred dogmas of his time--to readers accustomed to the solemnity and ideological fidelity of most Western religious poems. Kabir has been translated into English only once before, by Rabindranath Tagore and Evelyn Underhill. Unfortunately, Tagore's Victorian English was simply not equal to Kabir's directness, spontaneity, and irreverent humor. Working from the Tagore-Underhill translation, Bly has done much more than retranslate into American diction. A noted poet himself, he has breathed new life into the work of a fascinating poet"--From back cover.
