Between Two Ravens: A Norse Mythology Podcast S2E14: The Archetype of The Psychopath - The Trickster Without Eros.
15:27
David presents a short solo episode on the definition of the Archetype of the Psychopath based on Adolph Guggenbühl-Craig’s book “The Emptied Soul”. What does a psychopath have to do with Norse Mythology? Well apparently a lot, as Guggenbühl-Craig explicitly compares Norse Mythology to a state of “psychopathic depression” and nihilism.
David critiques Guggenbühl-Craig’s understanding of Nordic Mythology as a whole and shares a personal theory of the transition from Loki the Trickster as a creative force, to the Trickster as a destructive force.
David also reflects on the practical areas to recognize our “inner psychopath”, lust for power, and the rejection of vulnerability or Eros.
