It is said that Freud had a Shadow… that was Carl Gustav Jung!
Jung's ideas have had a colossal impact on psychology, cultural studies, and popular approaches to self-discovery. They form the basis of many modern typologies – from cultural systems to psychological tests. Starting his journey alongside Freud, Jung soon created his own field – analytical psychology, in which symbols, myths, and universal motifs found in any culture play a central role.
In this book, the reader will find all of Jung’s key ideas, learn what the Shadow, Persona, Animus, and other archetypes are, and understand how the study of myths and symbols helps in finding oneself. For everyone interested in mythology, symbols, self-development, and personal growth.
