Abstract
In this introduction to the Book of Ours student manual and its accompanying lectures and workshops, Norman O. Brown discusses processes for transforming the structure, dynamics, and spirit of conventional large-enrollment undergraduate courses. Brown maps the aims and intentions of the Book of Ours project as a recreation of “mythic consciousness by mythopoeic activity,” and in this way lays out a path to a more “poetical and sacred” style of academic engagement.
