Archetypes are psychic energies of the collective unconscious. They are expressed in images and symbols of universal human experiences, such as mother, child, path, growth, life, and death, and are experienced through these. In the archetypal images of myths, fairy tales, dreams, as well as in religion, art, and literature, archetypes exert their influence on the human psyche. This volume gathers the most important writings of C. G. Jung on archetypes, which are fundamental concepts of his analytical psychology.
