The Psychology of Fairy Tales

“Fairy tales are the purest and simplest expression of collective unconscious processes… They represent the archetypes in their simplest, barest, and most concise form … [and] afford us the best clues to the understanding of the processes going on in the collective psyche.”  — Marie-Louise von Franz

This program examines the psychological richness of the fairy tale. Each lecture in the series focuses on a single fairy tale and explores the tale’s insight into a particular psychological theme and inner logic.  This set includes the following stories and topics:

  1. “Go I Know Not Whither, Bring Back I Know Not What”: Moving Into Consciousnes (Listen free on the Jungianthology Podcast) – Lois Khan
  2. “The Spirit in the Bottle”: The Nature of Spirit and the Spirit of Nature – Barry Williams
  3. “The Old Woman in the Wood”: A Tale of a Woman’s Journey – Caroline Stevens
  4. “The Two Brothers”: A Question of Shadow – James Wyly
  5. “The Legend of the Bluebonnet”: The Ego-Self Relationship – Louise Bode
  6. “The White Snake”: On Individuating the Masculine – Murray Stein
