Maren Tonder Hansen interviews three master teachers of myth (Michael Meade-who has worked extensively with adolescents in the traditions of mentoring and initiation; Betty Staley-a teacher
for over 30 years in Steiner Waldorf schools; and Kent Ferguson-co-founder and Headmaster of the International School Down Under) and explores: Why do you teach myth to adolescents? How is
the study of myth related to human psychological development? What teaching methods do you use to help your students connect to the psychological dimension in myth? Which myths most
effectively address the developmental stage of adolescence?
