Wright, Ph D., is an alumnus of Pacifica Graduate Institute, where he submitted a dissertation entitled Privileging Logos: The Myth of the Western Worldview.  An independent scholar, writer, consultant and activist, his work of cultural re-storying finds him often at the intersection of mythology, ecology, and psychology.  His research and other interests include:

Jake can often be found in earnest reverie traipsing the backwoods trails of his beloved northern California hills. (He's also the closest thing we've got to Indiana Jones at the Imaginal Institute!)

Jakes's Work with The Imaginal Institute

Fools Dancing on the Edge
Gathering
October 2007
Jake joined us for the second annual gathering of the fools in Ojai, CA, with his sexy red etymological dictionary.

The Power of Ideas: Celebrating the Worlds of James Hillman
ImagineU Online Facilited Conversation
February 2008
Jake is co-facilitating a free, seven-week online conversation exploring how Hillman's ideas have spurred the thoughts of other scholars. This conversation is in celebration of the upcoming "Celebration of James Hillman" gathering in Pittsburgh in June 2008, and the corresponding book, Archetypal Psychologies: Reflections in Honor of James Hillman, being published by Spring Journal and Books.

Other Projects
We are working with Jake to publish a "primer" version of his thoughts about logos and mythos with Meandering Press in 2008. Stay tuned for more information!
