Описание:

Jung believed that great literature compensates for collective psychic imbalance, either by offering alternatives or by reflecting the imbalance. In this study, Snider explores Jungs theories by focusing on a wide selection of Western literature. Included are chapters on Merlin as he was portrayed by Victorian authors, Swinburnes Tristram of Lyonesse, Virginia Woolfs Orlando and The Waves, The Member of the Wedding and Clock Without Hands by Carson McCullers, Oscar Wildes The Picture of Dorian Gray, and the poetry of W. H. Auden.

The Stuff That Dreams Are Made On is a clear, straightforward treatment--free of academic and psychoanalytic jargon--of Jungian literary criticism. Sniders introduction is not only a first rate exposition of Jungian literary theory, but a lucid explanation of Jungian psychology as well. Particularly valuable is his chapter on Carson McCullers. All in all, a solid piece of critical work. -David Peck, professor of English and American Studies, author of Novels of Initiation

Clifton Snider, Ph.D., is the author of six books of poetry, including Blood and Bones and Impervious to Piranhas. His poetry, fiction, reviews, and articles on literature, composition, and popular culture have appeared in numerous journals. A specialist in Jungian analysis of literature, he is included in Natolis Psychological perspectives on Literature. He teaches literature, composition, and creative writing at California State University, Long Beach.
