When Jung published his pivotal book named Transformations and Symbols of the Libido in 1912, Jung for the first time proposed the existence of the collective unconscious. The major source of Jung’s new inspiration came from the Miller fantasies interpreted by Theodore Floumoy, a renowned psychologist and a reverted friend of Jung. Being a young and intelligent student of Floumoy, Miss Frank Miller wrote a phenomenological dissertation named Some Instances of Subconscious Creative Imagination describing

Human Knowledge During the first few weeks of class we’ve gone through various texts in order to better our understanding of human knowledge. We have talked about Christianity St. Matthew “The Sermon on the Mount”, Plato and “The Allegory of the Cave”, “The Four Idols” of Sir Francis Bacon, Robert Frost’s “Mending Wall”, and even Carl Jung and “The Structure of the Psyche”. All these texts may have been written in different eras and different places, but they have one thing in common, and that

Jung emphasizes that the collective unconscious is universally shared by everyone. In his theory, the psyche was composed of two compounds; the ego which represents the conscious mind and the unconscious. Jung claimed that the unconscious itself had two folds. The first is the collective unconscious, this part is where the brain stores memories, knowledge

Bernarda Alba" share many symbolisms. Lorca (Short Biography) wrote about many subjects and objects that often have an unconscious double meaning. These unconscious symbols are known as archetypes, developed by the psychologist, Carl G. Jung. This paper will analyze these symbols using Jung's theory of the archetype. By doing so, the analysis will better explain some of the unconscious meaning and original thoughts behind Lorca's symbols. This is important because a detailed reading will allow the reader

Originally published in 1597, William Shakespeare devised a renowned play about two star-crossed lovers, Romeo and Juliet. Most can argue that a prominent factor behind the choice

Once his faith is lost, he commits many crimes and ultimately hangs himself. This Novel represents nineteenth century Russia that is possessed by revolutionaries. The archetypes from Frye’s Anatomy of Criticism and Jung’s Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious will be used as a tool to label the characters Stavrogin and Pyotr from Demons. Frye, Northrop.

Marlow’s journey becomes a journey of individuation: a salvation realized through bringing the unconscious urges to consciousness – a journey which can be contrasted to that of his diabolic double, Kurtz, who undergoes a psychological disintegration into his savage self and slips into “The horror! The horror!” The shadow in Heart of Darkness is thus personified by Kurtz. Richard Hughs argues that Kurtz’s last words sum up the Jungian insight that “from the same root that produces wild, untamed,

referred to as individual experiences albeit shared knowledge is highly structured, relying on the systemic knowledge of several individuals. As a real life example, I will be discussing the interpretation of art as well as the Jung archetypes and collective subconscious. From these examples, we can question how personal knowledge does not triumph shared knowledge or vice-versa, but instead we can view how both personal and shared knowledge work together to shape one another. Art shapes the way in

Analytical Archetype theory I linked it with this movie almost immediately. Carl Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist, developed the idea that all archetypes are universal images that come from the collective unconscious and are almost instinctive to us all. Jung’s critical theory examines the unique personal collective unconscious of the characters in the film. These can vary anywhere from forgotten memories to traumas, keeping all religious, spiritual, and mythological symbols and experiences intact. It is from
