Jung asserts that he is able to gain an increasingly objective view of his life through the process of individuation and the writing of Memories, Dreams, Reflections. How do Jung’s critical reflections on his own life demonstrate or disprove his objectivity? How does his professed objectivity align with his view that life is essentially unknowable?

Consider the ways that Jung’s archetypes manifest in a specific work of literature, work of art, or historical event. Cite specific examples from the text to support your argument.

If Jung were writing his book today, would his archetypes change or remain the same? In what ways does Jung’s Mythic Creation of Consciousness reflect his historically Western perspective? In what ways is it universal?
