***New Mythos II Grant Awards Announcement*** James Hillman and Archetypal Psychology
"James Hillman had a powerful ability to look at so many aspects of the human experience in startling and uniquely revealing ways. It was wonderful to see these scholars capture his essence so poignantly and undertake Hillmanian explorations into such new realms." --Robert D. Wagner, Jr. Ph.D. Chair, Selection committee Opus Archives and Research Center is delighted to announce the recipients of the 2013 New Mythos II Research Grant: James Hillman and Archetypal Psychology.
From the 39 initial submissions the final selection committee, comprised of Dr. Robert Hinshaw, Margot McLean-Hillman, Dr. Ginette Paris, Dr. Michael Sipiora and Dr. Mary Watkins selected 3 finalists who demonstrated exceptional and keenly relevant responses to the guiding question: How can James Hillman’s archetypal perspective help us shed new light on the pressing challenges and inspiring possibilities of our time?
The esteemed committee spent significant time carefully reviewing each grant application and reported exceptional quality and creativity amidst the proposals and the process of choosing finalists was challenging. Opus wholeheartedly congratulates the grant winners whose projects seek to be integral in the visioning of a New Mythos for our collective experiences.

It's all a question of story. We are in trouble just now because we do not have a good story. We are in between stories. The old story, the account of how the world came to be and how we fit into it is no longer effective....Our challenge is to create...a new sense of what it means to be human. Thomas Berry
The old gods are dead or dying and people everywhere are searching, asking: What is the new mythology to be, the mythology of this unified earth as of one harmonious being?...The only myth that is going to be worth thinking about in the immediate future is one that is talking about the planet and everything on it.
