Maydanov, A. S. The Unconscious as a Source of Myths: What Freud and Jung Were Right and Wrong About

Abstract: The author analyzes different conceptions according to which myths are born in the sphere of the unconscious. It is shown that Freud exaggerated the role of unconsciousness and dreams in the process of myth making and underestimated the role of consciousness. It is also defined that Jung excessively archaized the process of myth making and should not have excluded consciousness from the process of formation of the unconscious.


Keywords:

psychology, cultural studies, myth making, unconsciousness, consciousness, dreams, image, symbol, archetype, referent, interpretation.
