I wish young men of my generation (20s-30s) would engage with Bly’s work. He finds a way to engage intellectually and emotionally with masculinity that isn’t all about either dominance or vulnerability, but allows for both, and also has no truck for the denigration of women. A far cry from the pathetic likes of Andrew Tate, or whomever else it is that passes for “men’s activists” these days.
I just recently discovered Robert Bly through a book I read called " Healing the Maculine Soul" by Gordon Dalbey, who referenced and quoted Bly a few times in his book. I'm so glad I've found his work and recently got the Iron John book and A Little Book on the Human Shadow from Bly and am beyond excited to dive into both.

Jung always used to say, "You must understand that the alcoholic loves spirit, but simply gets the wrong spirit."
Very interesting and thought provoking. Every woman with a son will find fruits in this beautiful erudite speech

What does Robert reference at minute 12:30? Court d' love?
Carlitos Gringo Courtly love is the phrase. Here's the relevant wikipedia article about it: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Courtly_love
Much appreciated.
Mohammed came before Rumi.
