Book Description

This book explores the enduring relevance of Carl Gustav Jung’s analytical psychology and its application to literary interpretation. Focusing on the concepts of the collective unconscious and archetypes, it demonstrates how universal symbolic patterns emerge in literary works across cultures and periods. Through analyses of selected novels from English, Russian, and Macedonian literature, the study illustrates how archetypal figures such as the Shadow, Anima, and Animus shape characters and narratives. By bridging psychology and literary criticism, the book offers a deeper understanding of literature and the unconscious forces shaping human experience.
