    Schizophrenia takes many forms and all forms are designated by psychiatric medicine as psychotic conditions. Paranoid Schizophrenia is concerned with the defence mechanisms of splitting, projection and denial (that one is ill, for example)

    Campbell refers to shamanic crises in this context and likens their experience unto the hero embarking on a long and dangerous Odyssey into the unknown. Jungs theory of the collective archetypes of the unconscious is a very different kind of account to that we find in Freud, in spite of the claim by both Psychologists to be influenced by Kant.

    War and Peace Mythologies are related to Philosophy in various complex ways but insofar as Ancient Greece originated with Socratic reflections on the Justice and its relation to the Holy, the Mythologies of Peace are more closely related to Ancient Greek than the Mythologies of War. Zarathurianism and its light/dark, truth/illusion, life-death oppositions appears Heraclitean.
