About this title

Synopsis

This collection of essays provides a handbook of Jungian thought on the destructive apsects of human nature, as well as an introduction to the use of archetypal fairy tale motifs in psychoanalytic practice. The cursed maiden, the bewitched princess, the sadistic husband and the wicked witch are among the figures that embody anger, aggression and other familiar behaviour patterns that block or destroy human relationships. The authors show how fairy tales can help us to recognize and deal with these forms of evil in our lives. The first part summarizes the basic approaches to fairy-tale interpretation taken by Jungian psychology and the second part presents and interprets specific tales from the Grimms' and other European collections.
