The Beloved of the Soul
Seeking the Inner Union
Love stories from folklore reflect psychological life in amazing detail. We
will use an archetypal perspective on tales of desire and devotion to
glimpse unconscious issues. Both idealization and discontent can represent
underlying issues. Our primary focus is on the inner life of the
individual, not couple issues. This course explores how the symbolic
journey is revealed in classic courtship tales.

|
Understand romantic ideas as psychological processes.
|

|
Draw parallels between belief systems and courtship expectations.
