complex novels of the twentieth century. This
complexity and depth is evident when the
characters are compared to the psychological
teachings of Freud. The book shows examples of
this psyche in the characters Jack, Piggy and
Ralph and how they change during their time on the

Interpretation Of Dreams Collective Unconscious
3,728 words
freud dreamworks By: leo 1 INTRODUCTION Although
Jung was a pupil of Freud, and one would think
they shared the same idea about the interpretation
of dreams, that is not exactly true. Freud
proposed the notorious idea that dreams are a
reflection of subconsciousness, but Jung expanded
on Freud and added another dimension to this
relation. In Jung's view, dreams not only lead to
personal subconsciousness, but also to collective
unconsciousness. This paper attempts to present
the two theories of d...

It appears as if the whole of civilised humanity
were converted to the aesthetics of the dusk of
nations (Max Nordau, 1895). How far and in what
ways is Civilisation under threat in Joseph
Conrad's, Heart of Darkness, (1902), and Robert
Louis Stevenson's, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll
and Mr. Hyde, (1886). Civilisation degrades the
many to exalt the few. Amos Bronson Alcott (1)

were upwelling's of a single underlying decadence.

The doctrine of Karma is a spiritual doctrine
based on the theory of cause and effect. Although
Karma does not exactly fit the definition of
supernatural phenomenon it is a spiritual doctrine
based on the philosophy that God is not
responsible for the happiness or failure of an
individual, rather, we as individuals are solely
responsible for the consequences of our own
behavior. The concept of Karma has two major
interpretations; the most common approaches are to
the idea of reincarnation, parti...

Freudian Symbols in The Master Builder The Master
Builder, by Henrik Ibsen, is a play about
individuality, morality, and self. But beneath

symbols that clearly depict the collective

symbolism and the psychological themes can be
discovered as they interact throughout the play.
Within a play, ? symbolism has a broader role as a

Friedrich Nietzsche Literary Technique
3,976 words
Friedrich Nietzsche's career as a philosopher and
writer is nothing short of monumental. His
criticism of organized religion and support of
nihilism are key characteristics of his work, and
his books are unified by one simple fact:
Nietzsche himself wrote them. While this
revelation may not seem profound in any sense,
Nietzsche's view of his vocation as an author is
the source of inspiration, complication and,
indeed, the very root of his philosophy.
Nietzsche's use of literary technique results...

individuals are often unaware of many of the
factors that determine their emotions and
behavior. These unconscious factors may create
unhappiness or difficulties in work and in love
relationships, or disturbances in mood and

Sigmund Freud developed many of the first theories
of modern physiology. He put forth many new
concepts about sexuality, consciousness,
unconsciousness and instincts. It was these...
