Marie-Louise Von Franz's Psychological Meaning of Redemption Motifs in Fairy Tales




It's been quite a while since I've been challenged by anything I've read. Sure, I tried to read Penrose's Cycles of Time and I didn't understand a whit of it. So that was outside my understanding but this is within it. I can just barely, if I read slowly enough and take time after each paragraph to think, comprehend the things written in this book. I am no Jungian expert myself, so ideas of Ego/Self/Shadow are a little convoluted in my head. Thank you internet gods, for Wikipedia.
