«Heros und Mutterarchetyp» is the essay on analytical psychology by Carl Gustav Jung, published by Walter-Verlag in paperback.
The volume examines two central archetypes of Jung's analytical psychology: the hero and the mother, and their presence in myths, dreams and symbols. It shows how these archetypal images condition psychic development and the individuation process, in continuity with the libido theory of «Symbole der Wandlung».
Volume 8 of the Grundwerk / C.G. Jung series (1985). It brings together almost all of the second part of «Symbole der Wandlung», except its first three chapters, and includes bibliographic references and an index.
Aimed at readers interested in analytical psychology, the work of Carl Gustav Jung and the study of symbolism in psychoanalysis.
Carl Gustav Jung was a Swiss psychiatrist, psychotherapist, and psychologist who founded the school of analytical psychology. He was a prolific author of over twenty books, illustrator, correspondent, and academic, best known for his concept of archetypes. Widely considered one of the most influential psychologists of all time, Jung's work has fostered not only scholarship, but also popular interest. His work has been influential in the fields of psychiatry, anthropology, archaeology, literature, philosophy, psychology, and religious studies.
