Integrity in Fairy Tales
October 14, 1994 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm PDT
All of us desire to live our lives with integrity, but few of us know what that really means until we are tested by life to realize our moral limits and potential. A common theme in fairy tales, little explored by psychologists, is this testing and development of an individual’s conception of integrity. Dr. John Beebe will trace this important motif in several fairy tales, seeking to learn from them about the nature of the core of our morality.
