Infos

Internal Conflict in Nineteenth-century Literature: Reading the Jungian Shadow' examines the genealogy of the Jungian shadow in Romantic and post-Romantic literature. Stefan Bolea analyzes the way the crisis of identity in nineteenth-century literature prefigures our contemporary ';inner discord' by means of the philosophy of literature, combining literary criticism with psychoanalytical phenomenology. This book provides a deep analysis of the connection between this ';inner discord' and the century that brought us industrialization, nationalism, modernity, and the unconscious by comparing Jung's theory of the shadow with Nietzche's and Cioran's versions of Antihumanism in a highly interdisciplinary landscape. Scholars of psychology, philosophy, literature, media studies, and history will find this book particularly useful.
