Archetypal Patterns in Fairy Tales (STUDIES IN JUNGIAN PSYCHOLOGY BY JUNGIAN ANALYSTS)

Rating:
Summary: Deep insight into the inner meaning of fairy tales
Review: In this volume Marie-Louise Von Franz takes six fairy tales and analyses them from a Jungian perspective. Marie-Louis's insight and clear writing style make this book very readible and her use of Jungian constructs is only used to open up a deeper level of meaning in the stories not to obscure or twist the story to fit Jungian concepts. I highly recommend it.
