Jung And Richard Jung

His intense curiosity of God and the church was also reflected in some of his archetypes. In particular, in the persona and the shadow. From my readings and research, it seems to me like the shadow is very representative of the devil or sin (Neher, 1996). With such an evolvement of theory and therapy, I do not that think that archetypes could be easily understood and applied today. Jung, much like Freud put a lot of emphasis on the unconscious. His theory of the collective unconscious which is a way in which all humankind is connected seems a bit mystical and outdated. During Jung's time, this theory like many of his other approaches was relevant and applied easily into therapy. In today's day, I do not think that Jung's theories could be functional since there was a move away from mysticism and religion. I had a hard time finding research that validated his theories and showed how they were useful in psychotherapy, especially in the United States. A lot of the research conducted was in Europe. I think this is one of the major weaknesses that I noticed in his theory. There is not a lot of empirical research, at least conducted in the United States that suggests that his theories have been effective in

Richard Wagner does have anti-Semitic pieces of work. Nike Wagner, his great-granddaughter, also brings up claims that Lohengrin is anti-Semitic, saying, “Should we allow ourselves to listen to his works with pleasure, even though we know that he was an anti-Semite?” Journalist Joachim Köhler published Wagner’s Hitler – The Prophet and His Disciple, and addressed the anti-Semitic views of Wagner in his various works, such as his operas. Köhler describes

The origins of Hitler’s anti-Semitism are widely debated by historians. Common theories include: a self-loathing for Hitler’s own partial Jewish identity, reaction from hysterical trauma suffered from mustard gas in World War I, sexual fantasies, and a persecution complex. According to Ian Kershaw these theories offer “…differing degrees of plausibility but ultimately amount to no more than guesswork.” Kershaw argues that the only thing that can be presumed about the foundations of Hitler’s hatred is his low self-esteem, his frustrations of being a drop-out, failed artist, and being an outsider of society. On top of this, Hitler was reading pan-German anti-Semitic newspapers and admired deeply the Austrian anti-Semite and pan-German Leader Georg von Schonerer and anti-Semitic demagogue Karl Lueger, mayor of Vienna. All of this coupled with Germany’s defeat in World War I led Hitler to find a justification for the world, as he saw it, falling apart. So, he turned to demonizing the Jewish community while working for the educational unit in the German army. In this unit, Hitler found his talent for demagoguery. Hitler made a concerted effort at accusing Jewish finance capital of being

Jung has contributed many things, but his biggest contribution to the subject of literary criticism is his idea of archetypes. An archetype can be described as a “… deeper layer of the unconscious that contained inherited, impersonal,

The other main argument from Wagner was that Jewish artists’ nature, appearance, and the overall tones in their speech and music were innately vexing to true Europeans solely because the artist was Jewish. This ad hominem argument from Wagner stems from his thought that Jewish artists’

A universal subconscious, a part of the human brain that shares the same thoughts and ideas as everyone else, seems crazy, right? Carl Jung didn’t seem to think so in fact, he spent his career studying such things called Archetypes, signs and patterns that all humans share in their universal subconscious. The first examples of archetypes appear through the creation and flood stories of ancient cultures. Now, the real question is how did these civilizations that were thousands upon thousands of miles apart possibly have such similar stories? Carl Jung’s idea of archetypes and a universal subconscious is correct in that all the flood stories are similar.

Carl Gustav Jung is a Swiss psychiatrist and the successor of psychoanalysis with important intellectual movements of the twentieth century. In his early career, Jung was influenced by the theory of Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis (Breger 2000, p. 217). However, they came into disagreement in notions which then broke their relationship. It was because Freud’s view of myth was based on reality, which there was no religion involved, whereas Jung though that myth was based on both reality and religion. Consequently, Jung’s notions were commonly accepted by society because of the wider context. Then, through his research and clinical findings, he developed some concepts like archetypes, collective unconscious, shadow, extrovert and introvert and persona (Carter 2011 p. 442). These concepts help Jung to deepen the explanation about myth. For Jung, myth is a projection of archetypes and collective unconscious. Their form are universal and identical with every society back into history. Myth can be identical because the original form, the archetypes, is configured to be the same among human's unconscious globally where people's psychic realm encounters certain motifs and typical figures that built into the structure of man’s unconsciousness (Jung Myth Ex. 3-4). According to Edward Tylor and James Frazer, myth and science were contradict where science was factual and myth was not (Segal 2003, p. 48). Therefore, myth has an important role in human nature and modern

The theories of Jung and Gardner is a psychoanalytic hypothesis in view of the accentuation that it places upon oblivious procedures. Maybe the most noticeable and particular component of Jung’s perspective of man is history. Both the past as fact and the future as possibility guide one’s available conduct. Further, Jung’s perspective of identify is planned as in the past. Jung’s hypothesis is additionally recognized for all different ways to deal with identity by the solid accentuation that it places upon.

Solitude can be a powerful catalyst for inspiration and emotion. Solitude reaches deep inside us and plays on our imagination, hopes and inspiration. The long period of solitude influences Carl Jung’s psychological theory. Nina Sayers in Black Swan dwelling in her lonely soul tries to dance perfectly in the chaotic world. Jung’s analytic theory allows us to deeply analyze and understand Nina Sayers in Black Swan.

An emergence from the state of nature to civilization drives man to ponder the role of government in his life. Democracy, defined broadly as an institution in which citizens in some capacity determine the actions of the commonwealth, has drawn both praise and criticism. Thomas Hobbes, John Locke and John-Jacques Rousseau all present differing opinions of democracy in their respective texts. While Hobbes rejects the notion based on man’s inability to think of others, Locke and Rousseau both engage it within their theories to varying extents while simultaneously offering doubt about the reality of it.

From the ancient Greek city-state of Athens and Sparta to the United States, societies and civilizations have been the cornerstone of human history. However, the formation of these concepts do not simply appear but must instead be created. Thus the concept of a ‘Social Contract’ was formed by philosophers as a means to better understand why individuals would come together to form a society. Two philosophers, John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, give their respective opinions on what is the role and purpose of a “Social Contact’ in their works the “Second Treatise on Government” and “Of the Social Contract”.

Carl Jung was a pioneer of psychoanalytic theory along with his former partner and mentor, Sigmund Freud. Though Jung split from Freud and diverged onto his own unbeaten trail of psychoanalysis two years before his decease, they are both highly revered for the myriad of ways in which they developed the understanding of the mind. Parallel to this period, Joseph Conrad penned and published the novella Heart of Darkness, which tackled much of what Jung had found about the psyche and its inner workings. In Heart of Darkness, both Marlow and Kurtz are representations of strong reoccurring archetypes within human myth, religion, and folklore. They work together to epitomize one of Jung’s Cores of Personality: the Principle of Opposites. The

It is a serious assumption that Wagner was known to be a suspected Anti-Semitic. Some sources will briefly touch on this fact as many people know that the comical sections of some of Wagner’s operas included the discrimination of Jews. This is an obvious and key part of the investigation of the social effect of Wagner 's political movements.
