Product Details
The Double is a provocative book about male eros, friendships, and mentoring from Gilamesh to Kerouac by Edward Sellner, PhD. Born out of Sellner’s own grief after his father’s death, Sellner found himself exploring a topic that Western culture would rather avoid. There is much guidance for entering this topic, which Sellner eloquently brings in The Double to support a reader’s exploration of this complex realm. With stories and illustrations from other cultures, a reader discovers how Western culture falls short of building deeper connections between men.
The Double explores the concept of the “Double” in history and literary sources, from the earliest known literature, The Epic Gilagmesh, to the life and writings of the 20th-century Beat writer, Jack Kerouac. Ed Sellner draws upon his knowledge of theology, Jungian psychology, literature, and the history of Christian spirituality in The Double. He shows how this inner figure, reflected in those close friendships between men as fathers and sons, brothers, mentors, guides, and lovers in helpful for all men in their journey toward spiritual meaning and wholeness. Expand your spiritual depth by reading The Double and become a leader in deeper connections for both men and women.
