The Child

An Archetypal Symbol in Literature for Children and Adults (American University Studies Series III, Comparative Literature)

by

  • 2 Want to read

In a children's favorite like Heidi or a classic such as Silas Marner, the child has endured as a popular figure in literature for both children and adults. Taking an inter-disciplinary approach, this study shows how the child is an important symbol in literature and psychology. The book offers a unique perspective by juxtaposing Jung's archetype of the child and popular psychology of the inner child.

Literature featuring the symbol of the child challenges readers of all ages in their journeys toward personal growth and integration.
