Numerous critical works have dealt with the fiction of William Faulkner. However, little research has been done about his significant work for the screen. Most studies that have dealt with Faulkner’s ...screenplays focus on comparing between the fiction and the screenplays detecting especially how cinematic elements have found their way into the author’s works of literature. Hence, this article explores two of Faulkner’s 1930s screenplays, looking at the narrative structures of the scripts, seeking to find out to what extent they are consistent with the structure of the monomyth, the concept introduced by Joseph Campbell. Moreover, the study depicts the main stages of the monomyth, or the hero’s journey, as it traces the main protagonist’s path from the start of his quest till he reaches the end of his adventure and goes through the main trials he has to experience. By applying Campbell’s theory of the mythological hero’s journey and referring to Carl Jung’s ideas on the process of individuation, the study exhibits the psychological development of the main protagonists through the different phases of the monomyth and presents their final transformation and full growth as a result of the tests they have undertaken throughout the journey.
Women and brains have always been an epicentre of intrigue and controversy delineating that women must use brains in dimensions that have been predestined for them by misogynists. An intelligent ...woman is often marginalized as unfeminine and hoydenish capable of threatening the heteropatriarchy thereby rendering it impotent. Several pioneering works on gender identity and equality began to be written in the eighteen and nineteenth century drawing attention of the intelligentsia as well as the common folk equally, towards this burning issue. Feminist reforms were initiated as a result of the untiring endeavour of writers and critics throughout the world. The first wave of feminism was a signal for the society to revoke the existing patriarchal norms and it was strengthened further by the second and third wave of feminism with formidable writers, activists and revolutionists who fought a long drawn battle to equip women with their share of rights. Women's continued and persistent struggle against patriarchy the world over has led to society's much needed changed perspectives towards women and their intellect. Women have proved the concocted saying "women and brains do not go together" false with their sheer grit and persistent determination. Reverberating similar deliverance, this paper investigates Alice Munro's biography of the renowned first ever female mathematics professor Sophia Kovalevsky in her short story 'Too Much Happiness'' with the archetypal lens of Carl Jung. Sophia, the protagonist in the story is a woman with an extraordinary intellect, a mathematician and a novelist with a rare fascinating power to conquer the world. In times when most women are compulsorily confined to the kitchen, she dares it all to make it to the University of Stockholm in Sweden and challenge the myth that a woman has less of an intellect than man. She is aware of the animus in her which is the so called male domain of a women's psyche and represents the logical thinking faculty in a woman. This paper aims at tracing the renowned Swiss psychologist Carl Jung's archetype of the animus in Alice Munro's portrayal of Sophia, to discern her psyche and to analyse and interpret how her animus affects her life and career as an intellectual in the old school patriarchal world.

This essay reviews the recent book by Harald Atmanspacher and Dean Rickles, Dual‐Aspect Monism and the Deep Structure of Meaning. The essay aims to contextualize and clarify the book’s core argument ...about the theoretical and empirical fruitfulness of decompositional dual‐aspect monism as an intervention into the mind‐body problem that ascribes a pivotal role to meaning. The variants of dual‐aspect monism discussed were developed primarily by physicists, but the essay also highlights the crucial contributions to the argument by the one non‐physicist involved, Carl Gustav Jung, as well as noting the significance of dual‐aspect monism and of the reviewed book for analytical psychology.
Cet essai réexamine le livre récent d’Harald Atmanspacher et Dean Rickles, Le Monisme à double aspect et la Structure Profonde du Sens. Il vise à conceptualiser et clarifier l’argument central du livre, qui concerne la valeur théorique et empirique du monisme décompositionnel et à double aspect en tant qu’intervention dans le problème du lien entre le corps et l’esprit donnant un rôle clé au sens. Les variantes du monisme à double aspect qui ont été traitées ont été développées principalement par des physiciens, mais cet article souligne également les contributions cruciales sur le sujet par le seul participant qui n’était pas physicien; Carl Gustav Jung. L’article souligne également l’importance du monisme à double aspect et du livre en question pour la psychologie analytique.
Dieser Essay bespricht das kürzlich erschienene Buch von Harald Atmanspacher und Dean Rickles, Dual‐Aspect Monism and the Deep Structure of Meaning. Die Abhandlung zielt darauf ab, das Kernargument des Buches über die theoretische und empirische Fruchtbarkeit des dekompositionellen Monismus mit Doppelaspekt als Intervention in das Geist‐Körper‐Problem, das der Bedeutung eine zentrale Rolle zuschreibt, zu kontextualisieren und zu verdeutlichen. Die diskutierten Varianten des Monismus mit zwei Aspekten wurden hauptsächlich von Physikern entwickelt, aber der Text hebt auch die entscheidenden Beiträge zur Argumentation des einen beteiligten Nichtphysikers, Carl Gustav Jung, sowie die Bedeutung des Monismus mit Doppelaspekt hervor wie auch die Rezension des Buches im Hinblick auf die Analytische Psychologie.
Questo articolo esamina il recente libro di Harald Atmanspacher e Dean Rickles, Dual‐Aspect Monism and the Deep Structure of Meaning. Il saggio mira a contestualizzare e chiarire l'argomento centrale del libro sulla fecondità teorica ed empirica del monismo scompositivo a doppio aspetto come intervento nel problema mente‐corpo, che attribuisce un ruolo centrale al significato. Le varianti del monismo a doppio aspetto discusse sono state sviluppate principalmente da fisici, ma il saggio evidenzia anche i contributi cruciali all'argomentazione da parte di un non‐fisico, Carl Gustav Jung, oltre a sottolineare il significato per la psicologia analitica del monismo a doppio aspetto e del libro in esame.
В эссе приводится обозор недавно изданной книге Харальда Атманспахера и Дина Риклза "Дуально‐аспектный монизм и глубинная структура смысла.” Цель эссе – исследовать контекст и прояснить основной аргумент книги касательно теоретической и эмпирической ценности декомпозиционного двухаспектного монизма, понимаемого как интервенция в психофизиологическую проблему, которая ключевую роль отводит смыслу. Описываемые разновидности дуально‐аспектного монизма в основном предложены физиками, однако в эссе также подчеркивается решающий вклад в это обсуждение человека, не являющегося физиком – Карла Густава Юнга. Также отмечается значение дуально‐аспектного монизма и рецензируемой книги для аналитической психологии.

Psalm 73 is a challenging Psalm in which the Psalmist draws on rich imagery to juxtapose doctrine and experience and to juxtapose the goodness of God with divine retribution. Drawing on data provided ...by 15 theological educators within the Anglican Diocese of Cyprus and the Gulf, this study tests the thesis that the imagery of Psalm 73 will be perceived differently by sensing types and by intuitive types and that the issue ‘Is God really good to the upright?’ will be judged differently by feeling types and by thinking types. The findings from this study are consistent with the broader hermeneutical theory that the psychological type profile of the reader, in terms of perceiving preference and judging preference, plays a formative part in shaping the interpretation of biblical material.Contribution: Situated within the reader-perspective approach to biblical hermeneutics, the SIFT method is concerned with identifying the influence of the psychological type of the reader in shaping the interpretation of text. The present study demonstrates that this theory holds true for the way in which theological educators read Psalm 73.
C. G. Jung, and those who followed in his footsteps to shape Depth Psychology, gave us the words to understand the complexes that develop after someone has experienced trauma. In particular when a ...woman experiences birth trauma, she can become gripped by the victim complex, feeling trapped by the feeling-toned archetypal core that affects how she interacts with the world. But what is the remedy to heal this? In the mire of my own turmoil, after the terrifying medicalized birth of my son, a chance encounter with a spiritual dance practice on the cliffs of the California coast was the only thing that helped. Curious to determine what was happening within me, I discovered that the ancient practice of dance actually engages the Transcendent Function. Miller (The transcendent function: Jung’s model of psychological growth through dialogue with the unconscious, State University of New York Press, Albany, 2004) offers a beautiful description of this Jungian concept, “The transcendent function is the tissue between consciousness and the unconscious; it is the expression of the space or field that mediates between the two” (p. 126). This connective tissue had been broken during my traumatic experience and it was only when my consciousness could once again successfully communicate with my unconscious that I began to become restored. Thus, my research examines how a complex can develop as a result of trauma, the way in which dance activates the transcendent function, and how these two things worked together to help me align with the complex to work towards individuation after tribulations.
This article presents a discussion about the "quantum body" of the actor and the concept "collective unconsciousness" proposed by Carl Gustav Jung. The principal objective of this paper is expose the ...lexicon and the procedures adopted within a contemporary artistic practice, resulting from a research created by Arkhétypos Theater Group in the UFRN, which is guided by the principles of the ritual theater and the quantum physics. Segundo Rubens Brito3, um dos primeiros pesquisadores teatrais brasileiros a se apropriar dos conceitos da Física Quântica: A teoria quântica, ao revelar que a luz só pode ser emitida ou absorvida em pacotes separados, denominados quanta (descoberta de Max Planck em 1900), instiga o cientista Werner Heisenberg, em 1926, a formular seu famoso princípio da incerteza, segundo o qual, quanto mais precisamente se tenta medir a posição de uma partícula, menos precisamente se pode medir sua velocidade e vice-versa. De alguma maneira, meu corpo foi potencializado pelo que estava acontecendo na cena e isso me fez saltar da função de diretor para a função de ator, tal como um elétron que ganha ou perde energia e muda de nível.

Jung devoted his late career to alchemy, convinced that it revealed the psyche's deep structure. This structure is not static, but dynamic. Jung saw that the alchemists described, through naïve ...projection, a process by which the psyche realizes its highest potential, called by the alchemists the philosopher's stone or the elixir of life. From a psychological perspective, we realize our highest psychic potential in an ongoing creative engagement with life and the world.
Using theoretical and illustrative clinical material, the author examines alchemy through the lenses of Jung's and Winnicott's perspectives and shows how the alchemist's prima materia suggests a form of consciousness that Jung refers to as participation mystique and that Winnicott refers to as transitional states. Winnicott describes a process for moving from subjective fantasy to a creative relationship with the world. This process aligns with the alchemical process of moving from the prima materia to the elixir of life. Winnicott's psychology also shows aggression's necessary role in this process. This understanding of the role of aggression in the mind's self-construction accounts for the necessity of the dark nigredo phase in the alchemical process. Alchemy's goal, the elixir of life, is the correlate to Winnicott's notion of play: not so much an activity as a way of being and living creatively.
Clinical material from play therapy, seen through Winnicott's views on play, are used in conjunction with Jung's seminal insights into alchemy to yield new perspectives on both psychology and alchemy.
