Who is Joseph Campbell?

Campbell is a famous writer on ancient myths, but the quote below sounds like it was something he was quoting from someone else rather than something he wrote himself. Doesn't sound like his style.

"When you see the Kingdom (ultimate reality) spread upon the earth, that is the end of the world. The end of the world is NOT an event to COME it is an event of psychological and visionary transformation. That is the end of the world. The old way of BECOMING or BEING in the world is annihilated. You see not a world of solid things and fragmentation, but a world of radiance and unity." Joseph Campbell
