Description
"The Psyche on Stage" explores the development of our understanding of the nature of the Self and its relationship to the ego. Dr Edinger traces the manifestations of the archetypes of the tragic hero, the sacred marriage and the search for wholeness, through a close psychological analysis of Shakespeare's "Measure for Measure" and "Romeo and Juliet," and two plays by Sophocles, "Oedipus the King" and "Oedipus at Colonus." Shakespeare's plays reveal something of the nature of the Self, regulating center of the personality, and the process on individuation. Sophocles dramatizes our perilous relationship to archetypal energies and the possibilities of rebirth to a symbolic life. Together, they encompass the major themes of depth psychology.
